New tools for creating playlists and manging song libraries? Sounds like stuff that should be basic ass features lol
At a time when people are struggling to get the basics and even keep a roof over their heads, all of these subscription services (Netflix, and more) just keep raising their prices and even more get introduced (Ubisoft announced one recently)/// It's wild that they keep doing this especially when even ten bucks doesn't get you much at a McDonalds these days. I don't know whether to be impressed by their (all the collective corporation's) tone deaf hubris or be disgusted, maybe a bit of both?
I get the impression that this guy is slowly killing Spotify with the insane statements about bands should simply put out more music instead of Spotify compensating them with half a nickel, and his completely devoid of reading the room of what, two price increases in one year ?
For a mere $5 more, your playlist will play all of the songs that live within it... instead of the same 30 on a loop for all-eternity.
