Spotify is very easy to crack, at least on Android

My biggest issue with Spotify was that they were changing the main screen layout what seemed like every other week. Like bro I don’t do podcasts so keep them off my homepage.

I ended up canceling and going to Apple Music because we were already paying for their other services and it was cheaper with their bundled membership. I also have a Plexamp server with all of the music I have ripped over the years and actually prefer that to Apple Music

I remember when it was a literal radio feature in Spotify and it was this but the algorithm was decent and you could curate different stations.

Your daily reminder: if you don't own it, it's not yours.

DisclaimerThe it in this case is your music library, and by own I mean have in your personal possession and not DRM'd.

How is non-premium different from normal radio?

Just listen to the radio then instead of complaining here?

If you're using Android, check out xmanager. It's basically a free cracked version of Spotify Premium.

Good excuse to plug ListenBrainz. On ListenBrainz you can track the music you listen to whether you listen to local files or services like Spotify. ListenBrainz also supplies you with playlists to discover new music based on what you've listened to so far. It's a great solution for music lovers that don't want to depend on companies like Spotify.
