Can’t even seek through songs.

    Who tf uses Spotify without a premium account?

    I’d rather pirate that shit that use it for free (I like to hit next all the way).

    IMHO Spotify is one of the few services that it is worth to pay.

    Your daily reminder: if you don’t own it, it’s not yours.

    Disclaimer

    The it in this case is your music library, and by own I mean have in your personal possession and not DRM’d.

      Nobody thinks they own music on Spotify. Or movies on Netflix.

    I’ve been using Spotify for almost 2-3 years. The only thing I can say is the app gets DEGRADED EVERY YEAR!!! They do their best to bring more and more bugs with each update. I’m done with Spotify shit, also they removed a lot of regional songs from my country. The only reason I pay for Spotify is because I can download/rip their music and store it on my Plex Server.

    I have the family premium plan and honestly love it. I haven’t downloaded an mp3 in years because Spotify is so convenient. As far as subscription services go, this one is top tier for me.

    Now when we look at movie streaming… well that’s what the music streaming could have been like. What an absolute mess.

      Looking forward to when you wake up and realize that you’re just emptily shilling for a company that would happily take your money while refusing features.

        Not sure how this is emptily shilling though. Am I paying for a service? Yes. Will I stop paying for a service if they start “refusing features?” Also yes.

        Like I said in another comment, I was happy with Netflix back in the day, but now, nope. I have self hosted alternatives.

        If a service is not worth it for me, I stop paying. Different people have that line at different levels, and for me, today’s Spotify Premium is worth it. In the future it may not be.

        No need to be so hostile.

          We are all here on Lemmy because we see the value in self hosting and free & open source software.

          However even here, people have the need to antagonize each other and call each other corporate shills.

          Maybe a peek behind the curtain of human nature.

    I don’t know why anyone would give Spotify money when they pay Joe Rogan to spread vaccine disinformation and union bust.

    I use YouTube music. It’s far inferior to what Google Play Music was, which was literally perfect, but it’s not Spotify and I really think it does mixes best of all. Apple Music is so very Caucasian, I gave it a shot but it just comes back to the whitest music possible every time.
