Re:Spotify patent would suggest songs based on users' emotions by ssss11 on Monday February 01, 2021 @01:24AM (#25986143)
Agreed. I dont need Spotify to try to understand my mood, I actively dont want them to.

I DO need them to understand (or give me a manual way to tell them) which playist is for my 4yo and stop trying to play me their songs when I’ve selected a playlist for me. Drives me nuts.

While I understand it not being worth it to you/making sense (them not having their own device, presumably) yet for a 4yo, there's not much incentive for Spotify because in most cases like that they want to sell you a multi-account plan.
