minus-square@HopFlop@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglish18•1 year agoHonestly, what does this change? For paid users nothing, and the free version was always unusable with you not being able to individually select songs.

minus-square@sparr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish5•1 year agoAs a long time Pandora user… I never want to select individual songs. I want stations, vibes, playlists, etc.
minus-squareᴅᴜᴋᴇᴛʜᴏʀɪᴏɴlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoSpotify has all that. Not “stations” so much. Type in “sleep mood” and you get playlists with days worth of various calming music. Workout?

Tons of podcasts, mood collections, etc. I haven’t looked up a song or artist they didn’t have. I am a paid user.
