The ads urge listeners to “join the mission to protect America” by becoming U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, but users of the music streaming giant have taken to social media and Spotify’s website to complain, and announce their withdrawal from the audio platform.
I know Apple Music isn’t much better, but I think I can convince some of my Spotify friends to make the switch with this article. I could also be convinced to switch to Tidal. I think they pay more royalties per stream than Apple Music, and Apple Music pays more than Spotify (correct me if I’m wrong).
Again, I know Apple Music probably also has issues, but Apple doesn’t seem to be in the business of selling your data… yet. They also have less bloat (e.g. no AI DJ) compared to Spotify. However, I’m not happy about Tim Cook sucking up to Trump.
Jellyfin, and similar makes a lot of sense for movies, but imo, music is released too frequently to maintain an up to date library. I do buy physical copies of my favorite albums, but streaming is really nice for music discovery.
