The value they have is music recommendation and spotify wrapped. Apple recently added their karaoke mode.Tidal has great quality. There are plenty of new music related features that they can add. I, as a consumer, sign up for music streaming to stream music. I don't value a podcast moat, so I use a competing service that is more inline with my needs. Plenty of services are rising their prices and lowering their offerings (HBO, I am looking at you). Which is also trash, and I am allowed to make value judgements on those as well. If you love podcasts, and need your Joe Rogan, then spotify is for you.
