After “It’s the worst thing to happen to music” one of my common answers to “omg why aren’t you on Spotify?” is that I DGAF if I’m on someone’s background gym playlist. Chapter 3 is literally about how the company geared itself toward “making music consumption easier for less engaged listeners.”

Fuck Spotify so much. On a related note, I've been making mix CDs again and giving copies to friends with CD players in their cars. ✨

This book is wild and I have never felt more validated in not using this product started by ad tech bros who didn’t even know what they wanted to make and then played both sides (pirates and major labels) telling them whatever nonsense they wanted to hear.
