Comment on Spotify suddenly cut off app developers from a bunch of its data

For recommendations and discovery (which was a large part of what kept me with Spotify), I’m a big fan of listenbrainz.org In the time I’ve been using it, the recommendations have gotten way better, and I appreciate their efforts towards transparency.

You can import listen data from music streaming services, so if anyone is curious, I’d recommend setting it up and seeing how it goes; I only recently got round to cancelling my Spotify, but before then, I had it set up so my Spotify listens would show up on my listenbrainz.

You’re quite right though that there aren’t any straightforward replacements for Spotify. Personally, I’m returning to the seven seas, which is why I’m so appreciative of listenbrainz — that discovery stuff really was the last big thing chaining me to Spotify
