A playlist moat doesn't sound like a real thing. I don't know how the average user uses Spotify but aside from the playlist that Spotify generates, all the music I like goes in one massive playlist. I've never used Apple Music but if another service generated playlist for me I would just as easily listen to those.
- nickthegreek 3y agoIt 100% is a real thing, I dont even really understand the opposite. Users curate lists, and even share those. I am a YT Music user and that severely cuts down on my ability to find playlists that others have created compared to spotify. When I switched to YT Music, my partner was pissseed. I had to locate and run some python scripts to run to transfer over the playlists or we were gonna be switching back. There are people who have Youtube Premium & Spotify because of their playlist/social lockin. Spotify Wrapped alone keeps people from jumping ship.
- BadHumans 3y agoWe are on opposite sides of this because playlist as as social feature is not something I can understand. However, every streaming platform has copied Spotify Wrapped. Hell, Steam sends me a Spotify Wrapped type email about the games I played at the end of the year now.
- nickthegreek 3y agoThe YT Music equivalent to Spotify Wrapped is a complete joke.
