Spotify is pretty successful and yet, Apple went in direct competition with them, using APIs that only Apple gets to use in their Music app (like integration with Siri).

- danaris 4y agoIn recent versions, the "default" is just whatever last played media—if you were watching a YouTube video yesterday, and the tab is still open, pressing the play/pause key will start it playing again. There's even a little menu bar widget (it's called the Now Playing menu, and you can find it under Control Center in the system settings) that shows all the instances of actively- or recently-playing media the system knows about. Whatever is on top (IIRC) is what will automatically be controlled by the media keys.
- hnav 4y agoIn the car today I asked Siri to play me a particular song (I have had Spotify defaulted for a while), it helpfully signed me up for a 7 day preview of Apple Music Voice and started playing it there! Where's the FTC? Is Apple too big to fail?

- threeseed 4y agoiTunes Store predates Spotify by 3 years and the idea of a subscription model was hardly unique to them. Also Spotify has access to all of the APIs it needs. It just refuses to use them.
