What do you mean "music slop"? I've found tons of great music through Spotify recommendations.
And they also push a bunch of literal AI-created music and allow others to do the same. So literally AI-slop taking away the few meager fractions of a cent that would go to actual musicians.
And what reason do you have to believe that the person you're chastising listens to that AI slop?
Never said they did. But they're supporting a platform that has been literally caught doing it.
I mean, maybe that's just your algorithm? All the AI music I've seen has been goofy novelty stuff like Obscure Vinyl, which I sought out intentionally and doesn't affect my other listening. They haven't pushed anything I didn't look for.
This is a well-documented and much written about story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversy_over_fake_artists_on_Spotify
Huh, TIL
