Uuuh.. Not what I would use Spotify for?

You probably wouldn't use Netflix to play games either but it doesn't stop then from shoving them down your throat.

They could just make it a different app, but they know no one is downloading it, so they ruin the default app instead. Outstanding move.

No way this is going to backfire like; The Spotify CD player plug, Joe Rogan, lossless streaming, podcasts, and just generally not charging under $15 a month for a music streaming service.

Such a shame because they really seem to still have the best recommendation engine.

What is a CD player plug?

[-] DataCrime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 months ago

The Car Thing. Came with a mount that uses the CD slot ;-)

We need money!

TikTok is about to be banned in the US.

OMG, that's a market opening up for us!

Spotify, probably (yes I know it's in the UK, but regardless)
