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

airportline@lemmy.ml to Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world – 1234 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.

Wait, so let me get this straight.

You purchased a device that presumably has no local storage and are upset that it needs you to login to a server that can then stream you the music?

Or is this an issue of not having a paid account?

I guess Spotify didn't realize someone who didn't pay for Spotify would be likely to pay 100 bucks for a device to stream Spotify, and in most cases I'd say they're probably right.

upset that it needs you to login to a specific server before it will let you stream music from other unrelated servers

FTFY

Must be nice to be privileged

If you can drop 100 bucks on a random bullshit device instead of just using your phone or something then you're the privileged one.

Reduce and reuse was just a way of life for some of us.

Plus it was on the marketing, not much to be done there unless you just can't read.
