- terhechte 2y agoCame here to say this. I've always been a happy Spotify customer, but this is something I really liked when it was available. Makes me question my subscription a bit.
- input_sh 2y ago* Five years ago, Spotify got rid of this in 2020. Note that this isn't anything particularly groundbreaking, most DJ software already supports multiple streaming services (Soundcloud, Tidal, Beatport, Beatsource, I'm probably missing a couple). This is just another integration you can choose from. Also, Algoriddim's Djay (otherwise not a particulary important player in the market) had Apple Music support for some years now, so I'm guessing the real story here is some sort of an exclusivity contract has expired.
- mxfh 2y agoYeah someone at Apple Music must have looked into USP / market differentiator checkboxes, where Spotify skimped out of more permissive/expensive? licensing contracts that would allow for that home use DJ use case. In most countries you need special licensing for public reproduction of copyrighted music anyway. That use case is not covered by your private streaming subscription. It´s just a means to get the media.
