    Spotify has one of the highest quality services and a monthly price that’s barely gone up in a decade. This shit just leads to them having to raise the subscription rate again if they can’t fix the issue with people clearly undermining the payment model. What the hell is it that you people want?

      Stupid decisions like paying $200 million for Joe Rogan’s shitty podcast certainly don’t help

      Your comment seems to be about the user/listener experience. The comment you responded to had NOTHING to do with the user/listener experience.

      the highest quality services

      What’s you’re definition of quality? Spotify is dramatically less useful than it used to be. So many options taken away shuffling is useless, garbage gets slipped in as a “suggestion”, etc.

        I love YouTube music. I get all the same songs as the other big services, plus free YouTube premium. Between my jam and habit and my quixotic quest to teach myself woodworking, I watch a LOT of YouTube videos.

          I switched back to Spotify after google music disappeared.

          too much crossover between random youtube videos and actual high quality music

        Doesn’t Spotify cap out at like 192kbps? I got sucked into Apple Music once I heard it had lossless music.

            I can absolutely hear the difference between 192 and lossless with any of my too-many-pairs-of nice headphones! Not at all with my AirBudz though.

            I can absolutely not tell in my car or my partner’s, despite us both having high-end sound systems (theirs is 2kUSD+ and I can’t even tell in there!)

            are you old?

            with time it gets naturally impossible to hear those differences

      Spotify has some terrible externalities though.
