Pretty sure Spotify are still running at a loss.

Huh, how does that work? Investors keep throwing money at it to keep it alive?

many startups do that for years

Not just startups... Amazon runs at a loss as well.

yeah i've gotten a handful of people onto google play music recently. they've upped the free upload amount to 50,000 tracks. i now have my entire mp3 collection available to stream at 320kbps anywhere i have an internet connection (work 99% of the time). use the phone app as my portable mp3 player now. all free. no ads.

Yeah - it's the stupidest business model ever - except for the people who run the startups/businesses who keep managing to sucker investors into funding them.

I didn't know google play worked on iOS - looks ideal. Fuck iTunes match.

Doesn't that eat thru your data plan like a muthafucker, or do you stream over wifi only?

 

that's what i kept wondering about tidal. like how big are the files they're streaming?

at work i use my cpu. on mobile i'll just dl a made playlist to the phone's memory while i still have wifi. if you are dead set on streaming to your phone instead of dling you can adjust your quality settings to try and keep the data usage down. it's not fixed at 320. don't really see how it'd be any better or worse than spotify or tidal in that regard.

Amazon is not running at a loss. They had like one year recently where they moved into the red but things went back to normal the year after. They just have an extremely low net profit due to shipping costs and constant investments/expansions (i.e. the money could instead have been profit for the company) and that's not "a stupid business model" at all. The reason they've survived all these years while much of their competition has died out is this focus on the long term. And why investors really like that makes perfect sense.

Watch the video earlier he explains amazons status quo pretty well

Missed that. Thx

The way Bezos treats his warehouse workers makes a lot of people uncomfortable.

meanwhile, spotify is worth more than the u.s. music industry

for real?! goddamn, I had no idea it had gotten so big. I'm not big on streaming myself, but then again I consume new music slowly.

Yeah I prefer to actually own my music.

Streaming and purchasing complement each other p. well, guys. $4.99 for Spotify premium (or Rdio) wtf why wouldn't I.

Spotify is about to go public, I read in the news today.

No rephlex streaming is the deal breaker. I need bogdan at all timea
