Bye-bye Spotify!

Bye-bye Spotify!

"Spotify is rolling out a new feature designed to get users to spam Twitter. The Tweet the Beat feature started appearing on the weekend, and it automatically displays a fullscreen pop-up ad for mobile Spotify users with pre-populated text and a button to tweet Rihanna with a thanks for her "**bleep** Better Have My Money" single. Spotify is also displaying the same pop-up on desktop clients, encouraging users to fire off tweets. The pop-ups appear randomly when searching for or playing music. While Spotify's free service includes ad-supported streaming, its premium subscription ditches ads altogether for a $9.99 monthly fee. Spotify premium users will also receive Tweet the Beat ads."

 

Bye-bye Spotify. I cancelled my paid subscription today and I will never return.

This can't happen because I don't for one have it connected to Facebook, and I don't have a Twitter 😛

Where did you find that? Looks like an article from tabloids.
