If you've been a Spotify Premium subscriber since it launched, you've given Spotify nearly $2000, and you own absolutely nothing.

@killyourfm and in exchange I’ve enjoyed countless hours of music, discovered hundreds of new artists I’d have otherwise never heard of, and had instant access to any song I want to listen to no matter where I am. I get it, but ownership isn’t everything. Syncing music to an iPod and picking which songs you care most about that can fit on your device sucked. So did trying to find a CD while driving. Streaming is good, actually.

@killyourfm@layer8.space Okay and? You pay all the time for experiences. As an example, you also don't own all the food you ever ate, and I'm sure you spent way more money on that

@ciaran And CDs have been dirt cheap for years. Significantly less than $20 apiece.

@killyourfm One thing that’s esp bad is when they make it impossible to cancel the subscription.

@davew DAVE WINER! What a joy to meet you here on Mastodon. Sir, you are one of my heroes. I'm the guy behind Insomnia Radio (one of the first 30 podcasts in the world) and I've been a podcasting fanatic ever since. Thanks for helping bring RSS and podcasts to the world.

@killyourfm thanks! ;-)the great thing about the web is we can all work together. i've still got big plans for RSS, we need to get these systems really supporting it, not just outbound, inbound too. and supporting all the web writing features of the web. if you really appreciate the open tech, become an advocate. we can get a lot more interop from RSS than ActivityPub. It's simpler, and very much built-in, and thus gives far wider interop than any of the other possible formats.

@davew @killyourfm AP has boosts. I want that for podcasts. It's needed to provide a human democratic alternative to the algo that podcasters are taking advantage of by moving to video to be on YT.

@killyourfm The entertainment-over-time is worth it, and I say this as someone who used to pay for spotify but doesn't due to being poor ™️ . I just pirate currently but I'll stop once I can afford spotify or Apple Music (which was honestly better).
