You forgot Spotify
Wait what are the big gripes with the Spotify UI? It works well for my purposes so genuinely curious
I've been using Spotify since it came out and I'm starting to feel it's time to move on soon. My main gripe is that the UI is getting less user-focused and more interested in pushing content and shitty social media-like features. It's getting bloated and annoying. Plus of course whatever major labels are pushing gets weighted in search results and recommendations. Just a few days ago I got a marketing pop-up ("what QUESTION would you like music to answer for you?!") which feels like the last straw. I paid for premium, I know what I want to listen to, just get out of the way. And if you absolutely must have some shitty "reels/shorts", give me the option to turn them off. (I see my kids wanting to listen to a song, getting distracted by some crappy flashing video, swiping around for a while, then exiting the app out of boredom. Luckily they have parents that can help them understand music from a different perspective than 20-second endorphin flashes.)
I guess I'll just go to Bandcamp full time and piracy if I want to listen to something before I buy a physical copy.
your kids are into Grindcore?
Not yet, though I play some Napalm Death or Brutal Truth records now and then to sneak it in there
