Why do people even use Spotify at this point?

Convenience of instant access to gazillion songs, though i'm not sure if the average spotify user even listens to anything other than top-lists

I used to use Spotify but got sick of their recommendations. Vastly different genre playlists would still get top100 songs recommended. Sabrina Carpenter in all my playlists.

I moved to Pandora, their recommendation engine is way less biased. Fewer features in the app, tho

FYI Pandora was playing ICE recruitment ads on their service last year.
