FYI: Spotify’s Plans to Demonetize Tracks With the Lowest Royalty Payouts Is ‘Discriminatory and Offensive,’ Says Competition Policy Expert https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2023/11/07/spotify-plans-to-demonetize-tracks-discriminatory-offensive/

Time to catch up. Spotify is getting shittier daily.

I only use Spotify for song discovery, and if I find something i really love I'll buy it.

I like the idea of Tidal's plan where they pay your top artists more.. But tidal is god awful at helping me find new music.

Also, i was only talking about functionality, not artist payouts. Apple/iTunes is a functional disaster (at least if you dont own a mac).
