No absolutely not everything is on spotify. And Google is not a search engine anyway. We gave them the privilege of their brand becoming a verb and now they're a corporate surveillance monopoly. We absolutely botched it here. Same with facebook.

We can search to get a quick superficial view written by whoever and now AI vs reading through a book to get a comprehensive view by someone who studied and has a reputation to defend. One doesn't substitute the other. The internet merely allowed for the lazy masses to pretend they could get away with not reading, which worked just as well because their boss needs his productivity/wages ratio in check.

You are so wrong, I really do not know how to respond to that. Yes, not every song is on Spotify, but you are able to listen to millions of songs there. That is more than your local record shop was able to stock

And yet id rather listen to the same ten records over and over again in my grandparents big old house than listen to anything at home in my tiny cramped apartment.

I'm wrong because you say so. Lazy.
