While there’s a ton of valid critique that can be directed towards Spotify, I’m not exactly on board with some of the other comments in here.
Competition to Youtube in the form of Spotify is absolutely far from ideal, I still fail to see how serious competition for a monopoly like Youtube can be bad though.
While I’d love to see alternatives like PeerTube to become a serious competition, I don’t think it’s anywhere close to becoming reality anytime soon. If in the meantime platforms like Spotify could become a serious competitioner to Youtube, it could potentially lead to improved quality and/or service improvements for consumers.
So yeah, I’d wish for something better but I also won’t be mad about a competitoner that could shake up things a bit when it comes to the monopoly position that Youtube currently holds.
