Why was Spotify no longer an option? Was it, y'know… Or was it something else?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

There's several issues, but for me it was:

  1. Supporting questionable podcasters like Gwyneth Paltrow and Joe Rogan - I do not want my money to go to these people
  2. Not supporting the artists I actually listen to
  3. Lobbying the EU against AI regulation, which goes directly against my opinions and preferences, again not something I want my money to be spent on

All of this new stuff is bad, but I already decided that this was not a company I want to support. They seem to represent everything I hate.

Oh, so the overall stuff. All the usual reasons. Or at least the ones I would think of. Paying bucks to make a free format "proprietary" while not paying shit to artists.

Yeah, I'm not all that original. :)

Forgot to mention their efforts to ruin podcasts for everyone. I refuse to listen though anything else than independent podcast clients.
