I guess I am in the music minority. I listen to whole albums all the time. I also listen to what I want to, not what Spotify recommends
Wait , yall don't listen to your own private playlist that has all your fav musics? People listen to those playlists mad eby others?
11:40 that point you made about Spotify making it hard for smaller creators is so true. Nowadays when I find a new song or an artist that is not super popular it feels like a hidden gem and very rare.
Personally, where I live, metal bands organize concerts almost every month, and tickets cost around 5$, as well as not having their music on streaming services, they only do music just for the fun
…so…I’m guessing you want a break from the ads?
I don’t think I’ve ever gotten into a band because Spotify recommended. I always get into them on my own by listening to what my favorite bands have to say about other bands, what my friends recommend, what I stumble upon on the internet, and just by seeking them out on my own. I have begun collecting CD’s and vinyls because of how much more valuable they are to me as works of art. And I want to have actual physical media to support my favorite artists. If internet goes down or my phone is dead, I can pop in a disc or a vinyl and listen that way. But if I delete Spotify, I lose a lot of ability to actually LISTEN to music. So much of my current music time relies on Spotify and Bluetooth cause of my job being construction. I can’t use wired headphones while I’m trying to put metal together. I can’t be changing out cds in a Walkman while I’m carrying my tools bags all day.
Spotify has the audacity to play different music when I play something else
People will go back to physical forms of music if these companies don’t chill.
This is why I only use Spotify on consoles because Spotify doesn't force you to pay for a subscription to unlock basic features like skipping songs
Please keep making videos, your production quality is fantastic
I hate spotify because it never gives you the actual song you want, and when you look for an album they practically catfish you
Why yes, I've hated Spotify ever since I woke up one day and found some of my FAVOURITE ALBUMS were no longer available. Thanks, modernity!
Spotify are never getting a cent from me honestly
2:30 growing up before spotify, we had radio. Thats the very same thing as this, just without the option for input except for calling the station and ask for a song. But this "When have you last time listened to a whole album start to finish" part, its weird. Hardly ever did that with cds either. Even then i skipped or used repeat. Yet 95% of music was consumed with the kitchen or car radio anyway.
Thats why i download the songs i like, an hour ago i found my password to get back into my account and half an hour later i feel like deleting it off my phone.
My daughter started using Spotify at age 15. She’s now almost 18 and complains how bad it sucks. She asked that no one give her Spotify gift cards anymore.
I have ONE playlist. 600 songs. 40 hours. 4 of those songs were Spotify recommendations. It’s petty but I’m standing my ground
here is the thing... there is no "right" way to listen to music, and things change. this is just a new way that you need to get used to. Better yet... you CAN lisent to whole albuns, just chose that option it's YOUR choice
Another (huge) reason concerts are so expensive now, is the production level. The tech is so advanced nowadays with video walls, lights, lasers, automation, pyro... taylor swift for example had 56 semi trucks of gear (not even including the main structure of the stage) plus the labor of 100+ touring crew, 100s of local crew, and everyone else in between.
