Raising rates.

AI slop music.

Reducing library.

Removing artists.

Its the standard enshittification playbook.

I am not affiliated with Spotify, but I pay for their services.

They very infrequently raise their rates, and I feel like I'm paying an acceptable rate.

I have yet to notice AI generated music infiltrating my feeds.

I rarely encounter them removing an artist I can't listen to.

I may be rare, but I just don't see the problems you're raising.

Big chunk of artists don't earn enough to make a living as artists from Spotify or streaming services. You can search this online, it's well known and reported.
