I get that, and it makes sense. What pisses me off is that this is the type of information all users should have access to before they decide to sign up or not.
That sneaky shit is what made me start on the track of removing myself from all the mainstream networks out there.
I’m sorry, I should have been clearer. Yes, I meant for streaming. I also have all my favorite music downloaded and play them locally (sort of, self-hosted from my home server). But way back when I was part of the Spotify crowd I came across great songs I didn’t know about, so streaming is a great way to find those hidden jewels. I just don’t want to have any of those apps trying to mine a boatload of data constantly from my devices.
