The Spotify Car Thing cost $100, but I can't use it anymore.

airportline@lemmy.ml to Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world – 1237 points –

EDIT: The only reason why I still had it at this point was because I could use it with other apps. However, now that my Spotify Subscription is cancelled, it doesn't work with anything. It's mildly infuriating because today, I can't still use it with other apps like I was able to yesterday.

Please don't make the same mistake I made. No one should buy this.

They named their device “Car Thing?” Just looked it up. Why not just buy a phone mount and play through your phone?

You can get a magnetic phone mount for like $10-15 that fits in the CD slot like in the picture. Not sure why this is a thing.

I have one on my seat bolt that is strong enough to hold a tablet for like $20.

My phone mount attaches to my car's air vent and I've been using it for years. Cost maybe 15 bucks.

I think this is the real takeaway from this post. Someone bought this thing.

It has the nice big knob so you can change the music while looking at the road...
