    I don’t know, do you people let Spotify decide that much about what you hear? I normally never let the music run through so that automatic recommendations play, but I choose explicitly what’s added next in the queue. So the problem mentioned in the article is not relevant to me at all.

        No, I don’t think that and I did not write anything like that. I was just sharing my perspective. And was interested in learning how other people use the player.

            I was asking a question, so yes, I wanted to know how other people see this and how people use the music queue.

            Of course I’m sure that there are many different ways to interact with Spotify and I don’t think that any specific type of use is superior.

            But since I don’t let the algorithms influence my music selection very much, the problem described in the article doesn’t have that big an impact on my everyday life.

            I’m not saying that I think Spotify’s approach is right. I would like a much more user-friendly music player anyway, unfortunately I find Spotify quite cumbersome and inflexible.

            Apart from that, I think that artists should get a bigger share for the use of their works.
