    Eh, I'm a full album guy (Pink Floyd ftw) but I still enjoy Spotify. I've been introduced to a lot of good music I probably wouldn't have found otherwise, and sometimes I'm just not in the mood to commit to a full album.

    I like the concept of original spotify, but this new one where they give joe fuckwit rogan billions and then screw musicians around for fractions of a cent per playback kinda turned me off of their model.

    Maybe I used it wrong, but I joined for a few months, and just used it to search up artists I already knew and listen. And then, I found it less convenient than my MP3 collection which easily fits on an SD card or my phone's drive. I only very periodically search for new music. And I usually end up obsessing over one artist for a long time before moving onto another. We're talking months to years. I've been listening to almost nothing but Rush for a few months now. I was never a fan growing up, but decided to give their whole discography a fair shot. Now, I can't stop listening to Rush.

    Something you may be interested in is the "Artist Radio" feature. You start out by searching artists/song you know (like you said you already did) and then it will search out other artists that you may enjoy.

    I've been introduced to a ton of great artists from all over the world this way. It's one of the coolest features of the platform

    Yeh I feel you, I used to be the same way actually. Gradually over time my habits changed and now I look forward to the Discovery playlist each week. But I totally get where you're coming from, I used to just listen to the same artist over and over ha ha.
