And some will wonder what the point of it is anyway, questioning whether it is simply flattery based attempts to promote use of the service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I like Spotify for it&#8217;s convenience when I have forgotten to add songs I had ripped from my compact disc collection to my cell phone&#8217;s library but I don&#8217;t use it often because I&#8217;d rather use my limited bandwidth with other apps. And this is why I have no assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also use <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3MF4zkl\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon Music<\/a> more often so this trend does not apply to me, although I am somewhat curious as to what the results would be. But not enough to favour the service over the upcoming year to get an answer in late 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quite frankly I&#8217;d rather rip music from vinyl and listen to that because I know the artists actually got a fair royalty rate. And <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4pHwrCT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">greatest hits albums<\/a> are a great way to get the artists their dues, if you don&#8217;t want to buy their most popular albums. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m presuming my age is pretty much up there anyway because I tend to listen to classic rock from the 70s to the early 2000s. And can&#8217;t say that I like even five singles on the Billboard 100 now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh well&#8230;  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Those that don&#8217;t use Spotify often will probably notice that they are not provided a &#8220;Spotify Age&#8221;.
