Amen! I quit Spotify a while ago along a similar line of logic, and for me the biggest shock was just how shitty Spotify sounded. It's only when I moved to (in my case) QoBuz (though Apple, Tidal, Deezer and Tidal all offer HD audio) that I realised. And I'm not talking about spotting the difference on high end audiophile gear either: it was instantly apparent even on my Samsung Buds.
Hey Tommy, what's up? The TikTok article is separate from the main article and if you read Nicolas his thoughts on it, you'll see it's not a 'promote posting on TikTok' thing at all.

I wrote about the experience here, FWIW: https://open.substack.com/pub/networknotesnewsletter/p/rejecting-the-race-to-the-bottom?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=qg89
But yeah, just quit Spotify. You'll never look back.
How can you slag off Spotify then promote posting on TikTok in the same article? TikTok paid less then Peloton to music rights holders last year.

Ahhh so it is. Sorry read this in a knackered state. 🤣
Still shouldn’t be letting TikTok off the hook though.
We won't :)
