Comment on Spotify caught hosting hundreds of fake podcasts that advertise selling drugs
prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 1 day agoI never moved from pandora to Spotify and could never find a good reason to.
I realize I’m a decade out of the loop, but what did it do better?

i never used pandora–is it true you can’t make your own playlists? that would be a no go for me. i switched to tidal and have no complaints

Pandora was initially antithetical to playlists, the concept was utilizing the music genome project to play songs that are like songs you’ve like.
Playlists probably was the thing Spotify had that pandora didn’t have that made Spotify get big, you can make playlists now.
I only use pandora because it’s music discovery is so good tbh.

Playlists? The reason people use Spotify is you can play the individual song or album that you want and you can’t with Pandora. That’s the key difference. Not playlists lol

I’m not entirely sure how selecting the song or songs you want to listen to differs from a playlist, but ok.
I think the concept of a playlist is exactly what you’re describing.

In the early years of Spotify I liked that it stored the songs on your sctual device, so you didnt need an active Internet connection to listen to the songs.
