Wanna bet? Cuz I think I’m 2 years Spanish language tracks will increase streaming by 20% and AI won’t even break 10% of listened to material.

You know how I know? The Rolling Stones are still touring. Most people don’t go to Spotify or YouTube for discovery, they go for convenient on demand.

Maybe not among you and your friends, but Spotify playlists are where a lot of music discovery happens these days.

Not sure that article is making the point you have in mind:

“people let playlists run on in the background when they serve inoffensive, bland music they can’t be bothered to turn off. If you look at the music Spotify has broken, it’s all chill-out stuff. That isn’t art, it’s wallpaper.”

AI can create inoffensive wallpaper
