I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers…

I make that subscription cost back in 10 minutes of work.
Doormat Spotify users 🤣
“I’m SO good at making money that I don’t care when people cheat me out of it for no other reason than because they feel like it. This is something I am proud of.”
“I spend hours configuring services so I can have a second sandwich with lunch twice a month.” - Proud little nerd with poor cost benefits analysis.
I’m very happy to skip a fast food trip to not extend my day job for .000005% of my salary.
Ohhhh maybe I’ll save up for a bigger house now that I have opened up budget for that avacado toast!
You are so cool. I am very impressed.
You’re the one out here calling people names, take a moment and think about your comments and behavior. You can only be accountable for your own actions.
Maybe if you don’t want some random person shitting on your stupid comments, you shouldn’t be so derogatory about different use cases. Think about that and how you ended up here being lectured about being a dick on the Internet.
I made a general comment, and my opinion has not changed. You didn’t have to make it personally about you, but you decided to come defend your honor against a nonspecific shitpost. Just like MY opinion is mine, yours is YOURS, and you didn’t need to jump in here.
Heck, I specifically addressed my initial comment to “lazy, doormat Spotify users” and for some reason you decided I was talking about you.

And if your projection gets you through yours, more power to you as well. I’m just a guy on the internet. I don’t know why getting the last word here is so important to you, but far be it from me to deny you something you seem to need so badly. I’d think that high salary of yours would free you from needing the validation of making speculative personal insults at random shitposters who hurt your feelings, but hey, if you want it, you take it. Congratulations on your internet victory!

I mean spotify is one of those things where it’s harder to move away and the cost benefit is harder to argue against. It’s not like the streaming bullshit that has happened where everything is fragmented and you’d need 200 substations to watch the movies you want.
The thing that sucks with Spotify is the money they gave fucking Joe Rogan
Look, I can’t expect your assessment of value proposition to align with mine - we are different people.
But if I were a paying Spotify customer, and they gave $250 million dollars to pay someone I think is actively damaging the world, and then started charging me MORE to pay for it, there is ABSOLUTELY no amount of cost benefit and convenience that would keep me there.
I will sit in a dark, silent room motivating on pure spite before I would accept such an indignity.

Like I said, fuck Joe Rogan, but every big Corp has been responsible for awful shit. At some point you have to live and you have to give in somewhere.
This is coming from someone that self hosts and even I can’t be bothered to self host every fucking random ass song in existence.
My value proposition is that my entire family doesn’t have to listen to ads and I don’t have to spend half my day tracking down songs.
Again, my larger point is that spotify for all its bullshit still isn’t streaming video levels of utter bullshit.
Well, you’re right. Everyone has to draw their own line. I’ll agree with you this is probably less egregious than some, and I personally do make make purchases I shouldn’t from institutions I shouldn’t to get by.
But I do every single one of those holding my nose and acknowledging I’m contributing to a problem.
