Why letters and numbers?
Comment on "Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?
ImpossibilityBox@lemmy.world 10 months agoIt’s personally a catch 22 for me.
I listen to an absolutely absurd amounts of different artists. A large portion of them simply don’t have albums available for purchase and if they did… I would actually go broke buying all the stuff I listen to.
Every single day I type in a Combo of 2 random letters and numbers into spotify and listen to the first artist I don’t recognize.
It really sucks that Spotify doesn’t pay the artists anything reasonable but I haven’t found an alternative that allows me to consume as much different music as I currently do.
This isn’t even including the podcasts and audio books into the equation.

Some artists use numbers in their names and adding numbers will change what the search returns sometimes with odd results.

It’s the same as pirating, except Spotify gets paid.
