And their CEO thinks music is a product that costs next to nothing to make so it’s okay to screw artists over for his billionaire pay check.
Fuck Spotify. Tell everybody you know to use alternatives. Qobuz, Tidal, Deezer…
Gotta say I’m surprised to see Spotify adding something people actually want. It must be getting rough for them.
I’ll happily stick with my trusty MP3 player we’re through it I can play, literally anything I want
We left this month, wife is moving to YouTube premium as a way to ease her out of straming services and I’m building our collection of music every month through self-hosting so when she’s ready there’s a large library for her.
It’s been great buying music from artists and listening to whole albums which is not something I normally do.
Spotify doesn’t support their artists as far as I’m aware, what money they do spend on creators it’s people like Joe Rogan, and they continue to increase the price every month. I’m tired of paying for techno fascist’s next Yacht (or election) and this is just one way we’re slowly pulling away from subscriptions.
They still scam artists and support war drone manufacturers.
Im not against supporting war drone manufacturers so much as ones related to Israel.
I’d buy multiple subscriptions if the proceeds went to Ukrainian drones.
Fuck Spotify
And they still exploit artists
I think they saw that their premium users are now cancelling their subscription and moving to other streaming services, also bands like KGATLW is removing their catalogue from there, so they pulled this move. Not until Spotify start paying artists fairly, moderate the AI music bullshit, stop jacking up the prices, stops supporting the genocide against Palestine, improve their discovery algorithm and the list goes on; Spotify can go fuck itself
You’re like 10 years late to the party pals: qobuz, deezer, tidal, …
Can’t wait for my new hard-drive to arrive so I can further expand my lossless music collection even more.
Cool, I’ll still be using Tidal, as they pay their artists the most, I believe.
So you can hear their ai slop music more clearly.
I’ve been meaning to look back into spotizerr and now I’m curious if it’ll give me lossless.
I failed the npr test so I dont think I need it. Either im to old or use shitty Bluetooth headphones… Or both!
Bluetooth protocol uses AAC to compress audio. If you use lossless audio with Bluetooth headphones it’ll sound the same because either way you’re always listening to compressed audio
To be fair I also tried the test with some 250 dollar monitor headphones and failed too. Probably because the shitty onboard sound card. But also im old.
hard pass
Just for clarity, are you already using spotify and are passing on this feature, or just hard pass on Spotify itself?
on spotify itself
🙏
