I just cannot feel any sympathy for Spotify.  It is not Apple’s fault they have an ad supported free level to inflate their subscription numbers that is not making any money.  Spotify is a Swedish based operation so they automatically have “Favorite Son” status with the EU. This is and a EU that hates American Big Tech’.  Spotify has been sued for lack of payment, failure to report play count correctly,  and so much more. Between Apple Music, Bandcamp, and SoundCloud I have all of my eclectic musical tastes more than covered. Spotify to me is the “Facebook” of music streaming. 

What complete bovine scatology. Doesn’t it sort of make sense that pre-installed app’s are going to be in wide spread use, that is sort of a no brainer.  I’ll bet Facebook didn’t ask how well loved their app
is. 

I have always preferred trusted venders I purchase from to send text messages, or e-mail with coupons, or notices of sales. I don’t appreciate being followed around by online stores I have no interest in.

One would think the EU itself is the angel investor in Spotify.

Why?  The EU doesn't give Spotify any money, or force any investors to give Spotify any money.

The EU is protecting a Euro based company from an evil American company. Any excuse Brussels can use to screw over an American company they will use. 

I don’t care what Twitter does I deleted my account and I will never return.
