I’ve always just had to type a songname into a box and have it 10 seconds later. So Spotify gave absolutely no advantage in access to music.
The only semi-relevant new thing Spotify had was music recommendations, but I never cared about that. I’ve never had trouble finding good music organically, nor even the need to listen to new songs all the time.
So yeah, for me, it never was more convenient than what I had before and I don’t think I’ve missed anything.
It’s that much of a burden to transfer like 10-15GB of musics? Even the most lossless file type(the name escaped my mind) do you need more than 30gb? Honestly question I have like 1000 songs and I don’t need more than that.
I was joking. I didn’t think “transferring music to phone” is any problem at all, because I simply had a folder set up to sync. But it seemed like you needed Spotify to be super convenient and no alternative to be possible, so I just joked and didn’t say anything about my real setup.
Oh sorry 😅 text is difficult sometimes.
I didn’t need anything. I merely meant that before Spotify you had to do things like that. If you forgot then you didn’t have your new music.

How did you solve music on your phone without having to connect it to your computer and transfering it? :o
Subsonic and the likes

No, but I’m talking about convenience :) Spotify solved having to transfer new music between devices nicely.
Yeah. It’s a different story for people who ‘consume’ music like they consume other digital media.
Those folks always need something new shoved in their face, and streaming services are their go-to.
Haha yeah I guess those who enjoy listening to the same records over and over don’t have a need to transfer new music between devices, that’s true.
I got around 400gB and almost none of it is lossless… I stream it using Nextcloud music.
400gb is how much hours of songs?
No idea. Between 60-80 days I’d wager.
I still used my cassette player
Haha wow! So you transfered downloaded songs to cassette? That’s dedicated 🤘 I had a walkman but got a smartphone not long after
