I’m glad I unsubscribed. Also, they kept pushing right wing nutjobs podcasts. Screw that.
It’s OK Spotify… I already left, you don’t need to convince me any more
Can we get a cheaper music-only subscription? Thanks!
I don’t give a shit about audiobooks, and I use a different platform for podcasts. I really don’t want to support Spotify spending unlimited dollars on Joe Rogan every other year. But they’re the platform with most of my music available, for now.
Which will lower the cost to them, and will therefore lower the cost to the consumer, right?
… Right?
So rather than finally adding basic functionality for audibooks, which the app desperately needs, they’ll bloat their numbers with slop instead. But Spotify has always handled audiobooks exceptionally poorly so this is very on brand I guess.
Spotify would have to pay for added functionality. AI slop comes for free.
Is there a public tool to turn a book into an audiobook now?
Yes! Read a book out loud, preferably to your kids, recording each chapter as a file. Then use m4b-tool to combine all the chapter files into a full audiobook.
Unfortunately my toddler doesn’t have the same reading interests as I… I also don’t know if I could handle listening to my own voice.
Gross
Spotycrap is crap, I’m glad I cancel my subscription and manage to patch the app, on the other hand, youtube music is superior and worth the subscription
