              Everyone has deeply hardware backdoors that are even helping the DoomConsumerism('Mitigations' that handicap their own hardware for the sake of always buying as helldogs the new one). --search 'Kaspersky Apple Hardware Backdoor'.

              And who remember how Apple handicaped(throttle) their oldest phones, for the same sick sake ?

                This is the same company the UK government ASKED and WANTS access to its users data! Apple has NOT granted this.

                        Even more, they will always throw videos into it, which is the crappiest thing + playing illegal uploaded music instead of the real uploads, which downsamples the audio quality, nevermind they won't dare FLAC.

                          At least Apple's cookies are 5KB not 100MB ... + Lossless + they allow Zero Caches + better lyrics + they don't mix grill with soup (podcasts with music) + they don't allow Google as much stealing their users data etc. etc.

                          Actually, I would have considered Deezer if it wouldn't have been 3X Expensive than everyone else for no obvious reasons and that's because they are DRMless, which means I can use it on BSD also, Stresslesy !

                                  I've been a premium user (off and on) for years and I have never bought a Spotify subscription from Apple app store and have quite happily used Apple app store Spotify app with no problems. Daniel Ek should concentrate on his own service.
