Why couldn't spotify start offering label deals just like any other record label the way netflix is funding its own shows?

the whole point of spotify is their selection

it's like all those failed online music stores before itunes that would have like 4/6 major labels [lol there's only 3 now], if you don't have all the big labels there's no way you can maintain the paying users you need to stay in business

isn’t that the point of Netflix or were people ok paying for the absolute garbage Netflix has offered for years

usage patterns are different, people* listen to the same songs over and over a lot more than they re-watch.


*adult people, I've seen a child watch the same 11 minute cartoon five times in a row

wonder how much money i could make with a youtube app that shows you a specific channel

just gotta figure out how to do it without getting banned by google and going bonkers

there were a bunch of those in the windows store for a while, I think the person who made them got sued out of existence
