That's very cynical. You're probably correct.
Someone recommended this
Dude, if there is a way for me to download the songs I'll be totally sold for this!
Spotify: "BUT now I have smart shuffle and can "intelligently" choose those 50 songs!!! "
I switched to Deezer on a whim like 2 or 3 years ago and never went back. It has its own baggage, but little annoyances like the shuffle thing don't happen anymore.
this is why i'm not paying for Spotify. xManager my beloved
youtube does this too, which I am pretty sure is just a result of a dumb bug rather than trying to avoid licensing costs. Very annoying that I can't listen to my 1300+ song playlist of every piece of music I have ever listened to and identified on shuffle
Alternative title: Spotify doesn't rule
This is why I still pirate my music
