they say that nothing will change for their users but a) lol bullshit and 2) it's not clear which users they mean it's all "plans to" and "just announced" and "vague on details" but at this point i don't owe them the benefit of frigall

i like spotify the best of all my music subscription things, but gently caress it drives me nuts that the interface is different between the desktop app, iOS, and my FireTV. Nothing is even remotely in the same location.

Streaming your own music from google play music was actually pretty great. I’m too cheap to pay 10 bucks a month just so I can listen to stuff I already paid for.
