bladegash 09/19/21 11:10:53 AM #12:	I can only use spotify for podcasts as they dont really have ads there while listening to those. If they ever add them though, I'll jave to change my sub from YTmusic to spotify bc spot has the best podcast selection by far while they all have about the same functions for music.

Jagr_68 09/19/21 12:28:32 PM #20:	As mentioned already, it makes no fucking sense how Spotify (basically like Netflix breaking even at best every financial year despite the multitude of content they provide) can't pay artists a fair share of income so they can keep making music, YET they gave Alt Right Moron Jo Roegaine 100 million dollars to make shit they reportedly can't ethically stand for.
