Devils advocate moment... If people keep listening (or sort of listening) and they are OK with music that seems to lack any soul, is it not just giving the audience what they want and deserve?

Devils concierge moment... What a bunch of shitbags.

An artificial effect is not the same as a natural cause.

Sure, but can you explain what you mean by that in this context?

[–] nintendiator@feddit.cl 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just because people consume music slop, does not mean that that is a natural demand (given the supply is explicitly artificial, so certainly there's an economic incentive to generate demand), or something they deserve to consume or have to be given to consume (you shit every day; does not imply you want shit).

Never had a compliant with Apple Music, has a decent Android client with Auto support too.

Yeah, I’m looking to switch from iPhone to Pixel soon, but I’ll be keeping my AM sub. Had it since the day it launched, and it’s been great.

I don't pay for Spotify, but if I do pay for music then I would choose Tidal
