Can’t argue with that. I used to do similar. I just found after moving to Apple Music from Amazon and Spotify that I haven’t wanted to leave. I’m not constantly bombarded with podcasts when I’m trying to listen to music (looking at you Spotify) and that’s been a big UX improvement for me. I might try Tidal again at some point but when I tried it initially it was a bit clunky.
Yeah, I’m not a playlist guy at all. All my friends tell me I’m lame and that it’s like a better version of the mixtape but to me a playlist has never been analogous to the mixtape or burned CD. With those formats you had quantifiable time limits so you had to be very selective about what went on them.
I’m an album purist at heart, I understand I’m in the massive minority but it is just who I am.
