albums weren't sold in blank sleeves. Lot's of stuff around the album was there to make it more exiting. Album design, liner notes, and even record stores are all part of a past "exciting" music listening experience, that author argues Spotify do not want to bring to their users.

It's a music player. You play/pause and scrub or go next, how are you supposed to make that more exciting? I don't want unnecessary visuals or music lore on my screen, I want a music player. And so do most other people who put music on, minimize the app and do something else.
