Because the sole driver of all of this is the UFCW. That's why only grocery stores. Because they're still mad they think it "takes away jobs" to put in electronic ink price tags. That's it. They came up with the res

That's every move Spotify has done recently. Podcasts, audiobooks, AI music, and now an entire fitness hub - they really don't want to pay actual artists anything for their music while jacking up prices for everyone else. (Oh,
