The Spotify Car Thing cost $100, but I can't use it anymore.

EDIT: The only reason why I still had it at this point was because I could use it with other apps. However, now that my Spotify Subscription is cancelled, it doesn't work with anything. It's mildly infuriating because today, I can't still use it with other apps like I was able to yesterday.
Please don't make the same mistake I made. No one should buy this.
You're viewing a single thread.
You paid $100 to play music that you didn't own. It feels mean to put it that way, but it was never a foolproof plan if we're being honest.
You'd be shocked to hear that people purchase radios for over $100 to listen to music they don't own.
Yes, and after the 100$, they can listen to the radio. Op has a brick unless he pays more every month.
This is my point. The person I replied to said OP shouldn't expect more than what they got. I pointed out this same business model has worked for decades so OP shouldn't have expected the outcome of a bricked device.
Oh, I get you. My bad.
I mean what on earth do you expect when buying an accessory for a subscription service?
If Netflix made a remote it wouldn't be of any use without a Netflix account either.
Purchase? Present tense?
Yep
Radio is still very popular. Great way to discover new music and lowest possible bar for entry.
Under a rock question here, but do you know of any sites that map out radio stations so you can preview them or note them to check out when traveling about?
I mostly listen to my own music when traveling because I don't know any radio stations that might click with me, and don't really feel like or sometimes have the time to scan for them.
Not really no, the few times a year that I'm out of the country I'll just rely on my spotify library like you.
Oh, to clarify, when I said my own music, I meant my local files. I'm a weirdo that buys music & syncs it across devices.
That said, I did a little searching after asking this and found a cool little site called Radio.garden that helps find some radio stations around you, and found some cool stations I might give more of a listen to.
I'd be shocked if you can explain why that's the same as owning a walled garden front-end that turns into e-waste the second your wallet closes.
There's a difference between purchasing a product and paying for a service.
Paying for Spotify would be the latter.
You’re right. They paid $100 for a remote control for Spotify.
One wonders why but each to their own, I guess.
Water is a liquid. The human body can only breathe gases. When you breathe a liquid, that is called drowning.
Boom.

I agree, smugly stating the obvious is fun. I didn't think it would be, but you won me over.
Actually, they've developed breathable liquid like from The Abyss. It's been a thing since the 90s.
If you want to smugly state the obvious, at least be accurate.
Youre the only smug one, not to mention the only fool.
People have paid 100s of dollars on radios to listen to music they don't own for decades. People would be pretty upset if radio stations started paywalling their broadcasts.
