I guess define viable?
The future has got to hold more ways to relate to music than the main apps of Spotify, Apple Music, etc., which push music in a very specific, generic way. Mostly around top 40, opaque personalizations, algorithms and “algotorial”.
We’re never getting back to a place where your identity is defined by which record store you go to.
But shouldn’t 1000 music apps be blooming right now, a burbling ecosystem of experiences for every kind of listener?
