it's only a matter of time before spotify starts replacing all the actual music they have with cheap netflix-like knockoffs produced under their own label "we don't have the beatles, but try this similar band! they were recently featured in the trailer for a low-budget Lifetime film about the 1960s!"

abigserve posted:Spotify is certified A Good Program it does own, but the music industry is so hosed with all the God drat Greed. Example: Game updates get pushed out to remove songs when licenses expire, or terms change. time 2 make u think: Imagine if that happened with the Mechwarrior 2 soundtrack.

Rex-Goliath posted:also i'm not bothering to check their statements or anything but how the gently caress are they justifying this valuation? or are they not even trying to do that? they have all the risk & exposure of netflix with none of the ability to pivot into inhousing everything i wish i could find the article where somebody at some company gets asked where they got their valuation number (5b if i remember) from and the answer was "you can't hire good engineers if your valuation isn't at least that high so that's what we made it" lmao

The Management posted:Spotify has good music but the app is a mess indeed there are a few things which gently caress me off but none as bad as how easy it is to highjack the queue by default it shouldn’t be easy to stop what’s playing and change the entire music direction. add to queue is good, and should be default. add to top of queue would be nice and they need to social it a bit more. send a song to a friend isn’t possible thru spotify, just over other networks

oh yeah one of the thigns that annoyed me most about spotify was that if you start e.g. and album by clicking on the first song, it doesn't add the album to your queue, but does play through it. if you click to add something to your queue, it puts it between the current song and the next song in the album. i realize it is because spotify believes everyone just presses shuffle everywhere but it was annoying

back when i worked on windows media player we'd get hatemail about the random shuffle because it would sometimes play the same song twice in a row. because, you know, random.
