Spotify is the most valuable subscription I have. $10 for all the music I could ever want. I journey through the discographies of artists I listened to as a kid, I discover new artists, I love it.
My biggest gripe... I don't want to listen to Drake. Ever. Yet he's in every one of my Daily Mix playlists.
- criddell 4y agoPayola is back!
- pionar 4y agoAt least in the Android app, you can go to an Artist's page and choose to not ever play that artist. I've done this with a handful of artists (Taylor Swift and Smashmouth come to mind) and it makes it so much better.
- typeofhuman 4y agoThank you!!! I had no idea this existed.
- r053bud 4y agoWhat we need is the ability to control our own “timelines” and curation policies. Spotify is most definitely incentivized to highlight certain artists over others (using a completely opaque process). Again it all comes back to maximizing shareholder value over maximizing user control and experience.
- unethical_ban 4y agoAll the music you want right now until the day they fall out with a record label, or some artist challenges their music on the platform, and so on. Just remember, everything about Spotify is ephemeral.
- sod 4y agoThis annoyed me a lot. E.g. https://open.spotify.com/album/2qgVJm03eVhUr0GBif7FY0 https://open.spotify.com/album/2qgVJm03eVhUr0GBif7FY0 became unavailable a while ago. At least Spotify is transparent about it: Still listed, just not playable. I made peace with music disappearing though. The convenience of an online music library is more important to me personally.
