What all these comments are missing is the browsing/discovery aspect. At least in my circles, thats the main (really, only) reason Spotify is used over traditional music stores or piracy. I appreciate that the video actually proposes a replacement for that in ListenBrainz. That said, given that the platform seems really niche, I have my doubts about how well it would work. For example, I have a friend who almost exclusively listens to non-western songs. Most other nerdier platforns offer nothing for this, and it seems like this would be the same.
