I don't know why anyone would give Spotify money when they pay Joe Rogan to spread vaccine disinformation and union bust.
I use YouTube music. It's far inferior to what Google Play Music was, which was literally perfect, but it's not Spotify and I really think it does mixes best of all. Apple Music is so very Caucasian, I gave it a shot but it just comes back to the whitest music possible every time.
Frankly, I do because I share a family account with ~~a bunch of people I haven't spoken to since high school~~ my family. The amount of money I pay is absolutely negligible for me, it's less than what I give to homeless people on the street.
I tried quitting Spotify because I really do hate it for a number of reasons. Apple Music was pretty shite on Android (and Linux). I also tried living without a streaming service, but ironically a lot of smaller bands don't release their music through anything but the popular streaming services. Piracy also sucks when you can only download popular music at best.
That's perfectly reasonable. I just can't do the disinformation!
