I like the concept of original spotify, but this new one where they give joe fuckwit rogan billions and then screw musicians around for fractions of a cent per playback kinda turned me off of their model.

Maybe I used it wrong, but I joined for a few months, and just used it to search up artists I already knew and listen. And then, I found it less convenient than my MP3 collection which easily fits on an SD card or my phone's drive. I only very periodically search for new music. And I usually end up obsessing over one artist for a long time before moving onto another. We're talking months to years. I've been listening to almost nothing but Rush for a few months now. I was never a fan growing up, but decided to give their whole discography a fair shot. Now, I can't stop listening to Rush.
