Me&family spent like €5k on Apple devices (incl. smart speakers), then another €20+/mo on various subscriptions such as Apple Music. So I play through AirPods from a Mac using Music.app and from Apple's catalogue... the library metadata is a mess, there's entire (well-known) bands whose many albums are not available, Siri keeps mis-interpreting my requests (plays a song that's similarly named by an artist I never heard of even though I used the exact name of an album I listened to dozens of times last year alone), the "smart" playlist seems to play the same 50 songs on shuffle+repeat...
...and now also the playback in Music.app occasionally stutters, on an M1 Mac, with an otherwise idle system. So let's raise the subscription prices.
In my opinions, all of these companies got waaay too comfortable taking our subscription money.
Don't worry, I'll figure out a different way to get these €16.99/mo into the starving artists' hands, plenty of buskers around here.
