"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?
I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a "sponsored recommendation".
Why am I seeing ads if I'm already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

Apple Music pays musicians, Qobuz pays the best and costs the most
They both sound really good. If you have the money and are willing to compromise on a few things than Qobuz is the nice one
There's also Tidal. Which pays well but is a buggy mess
Apple also rolled out a really good seaparate app specifically for browsing and listening to classical music.
Classical music doesn't organize easily into "bands/albums" the way most works from the last 80 years do. Most music players tend to fall apart when you try to organize a library of classical music in any coherent manner. So they solved this problem by desiging a completely separate UI for it.
That's pretty cool. Shame it's iOS only.
It's on Android as well
Oh cool, thank you. Turns out the device I was on was too old for it.
I've been on Tidal for over a year with barely any bugs. Highly recommend!
I've actually had zero issues with tidal since I switched a couple of months ago, it pays artists better and I think it has more artists on it. I don't use the mobile app much though if that's what's buggy, I mainly use the desktop app (on Linux) and occasionally the Plex integration to listen from my tv
