    My wife loves Spotfiy, especially when she is doing the dishes. She just wants background noise, and doesn't care what plays next.

    Myself, I prefer a physical collection of music and be in absolute control over what I listen to

    Yeah right.
    So you aren't going to accuse women doing the washing up as sexist? (Which is OBVIOUSLY what I was implying you would do, with my comment!)
    Amazing!

    Actually, my wife and I have a mutual agreement. I'll cook and she will do the dishes, it works. My comment was bordering on baiting I'll give you that

    Spotify has the younger generations in the bag. They dont know what an MP3 is.. If its not stored in an iCloud automatically, they dont know where to store it. Spotify was a groundbreaking game changer. Its DEFINATELY not a fad. Mp3's on tiny media player (ala the iPod) were the fad.. CD's were the fad.. Cassette tapes and walkmens, Sirius, etc.... all of those were just getting us closer to the King of Music playback.. All the On-Demand music you can want, all stored in the cloud, that streams instantly in high quality, on a device EVERYONE has on them 24/7.. Can be played in your car, on your headphones, on your home stereo system.. on your Game Console, computer, phone...

    I love spotify personally. I have found MANY new artists that I would have never found without Spotify's AI finding songs and "Enhancing" my playlists. 95% of those songs I dont like.. but 1 in 100 songs is a gem, and I find a new band, more music.

    I either listen to one of my own playlists I have built, or I let spotify recommend me songs based on my playlist, and hit next 100 times before finding a good song, going to that bands page, listening to their top ten, etc..

    I've always been been paranoid about a digital blackout, a systemwide Internet shutdown, for which I've been saving the bests songs and movies for years in mp4, mp3 formats. I've just forgotten all about it in recent years. I suspect those discs will die off sooner than the Internet fails, or maybe a new computing paradigm will turn them obsolete.

    Back to reality, I used to love Spotify.

    I've ditched it because for a few cents less I pay YouTube (I know, pay Google, me moron). The thing is I get YouTube music and no ads in any platform I use for less than the price of Spotify. There's one thing I've discovered: YouTube music is better than Spotify in one important regard: It doesn't have an agenda to push payola-sponsored artists in playlists. In Spotify, you choose and artist, listen to them and then Spotify pushes music you've never heard of before. You Tube music learns your preferences and feeds you the music you want, not someone else's you didn't sign up for. When it makes suggestions, they bring up related songs that are like "wow, I'd forgotten all about that song." Of course, I'm an old fart. If you are young and in search of new musical experiences, maybe this feature isn't that cool, or maybe it is if you listen to top 40.
