spotify already offers some of the lowest payments per stream. 

And Spotify wants to go even LOWER on payments to artists. News from yesterday outlines their plan to offer artists higher exposure to customers by tweaking their algorithm to show and play participating artists more often and more prominently, in exchange for those artists agreeing to a lower per stream payment plan than other artists. It sounds very similar to the "influencers" who beg businesses to give them their product for free and in exchange they'll "promote" the product. I really don't like it.

Should just be in a genre tab on Apple Music. 

a lot of music catalogs on Apple Music. Just because this is a giant catalog doesn’t mean it needs its own app. 

Biography info, etc would fit nearly as a link or accordion element. 

More steps to do the same thing. Not good. 

Anyone who's even the slightest bit serious about Classical Music would entirely disagree with you.

Wasn't sure I'd like it, almost didn't give it a chance, but ended up loving it.

What car is in all of these pictures? I absolutely hate how it displays CarPlay with a third of the screen taken up by shit that I don't need to be seeing. That whole bottom row of buttons has to go. Just put a physical home button to get to the car's own home screen, or fit in a virtual one up top in place of the unneeded and hardly readable "now playing" bs.

Does this mean anything for the display size or just cosmetic? Not that I’d object to a thinner phone but I’m actually used to the 6.7” display. 

Display size is to remain the same. The slightly smaller height and width will produce smaller bezels.
