[Android][Other] Increase bitrate in Android Automotive

[edringen]

The playback in Android Automotive (not to be confused with Android Auto) in Polestar 2 is poor due to low bitrate in the Spotify app. Please either increase the hardcoded bitrate in the app or make the bitrate a user configurable setting in the app.

Note that YouTube Music uses higher bitrate and sounds better on Android Automotive. You should rectify your low bitrate on Android Automotive before too many people migrate to YouTube Music.

I totally agreed with you

Spotify staff (looking at your status update): This isn't really an idea. Using a crappy bitrate like in the current app is more of an insult, and should be considered a bug rather than a new idea. Not that it matters as long as you fix it ASAP. Should take you 10 minutes, tops.

Why has this not been implemented from the beginning? This is 2020 and 320 should be the standard. I am switching to Youtube music until this has been resolved

This should be considered a bug as should have been implemented from the beginning.
