    And since they removed my playlist radio, song discoverability has gone down so much. They just keep playing me the same damn music when I want related stuff.

      For the life of me, I cannot figure out why they got rid of playlist radio. It makes Spotify so much worse and I can’t imagine it saves them any money

        Probably some over complicated statistical model that will eek out cents more revenue per user.

        It’s one of the worst changes they’ve made and it’s legitimately been making me take another look at all of their competitors.

      For the same reason all the streaming sites decided to gimp their discoverability and just force you into whatever the algorithm thinks you need.

      Some middle manager wanted to justify their bonus so they jumped in the current fad
