[Social] CURIOUS TO HEAR WHAT PERSON NEXT TO YOU LISTENING TO? Music Sharing

[Crossbnz]

Hello,

Just imagine a situation:

You are sitting in the bus. And listening to your favourite music on headphones. When you notice a cute person who is sitting in the bus too, and really enjoying the music, while shaking head with the beat. So curious.. WHAT SHE/HE IS LISTENING TO?!
How to know that? You take your phone from your pocket and open spotify app. There you see everyperson in 50m radius who is using Spotify and shares their music. And you see that she is listening for A-HA - TAKE ON MEE!. You connect to her music and listen to this song also. And when the bus stops, you leave it and say to her/him: ARE YOU PLANNING TO GO TO A-HA CONCERT THIS SUMMER? I LOVE THIS SONG TOO.
And you live happily ever after ❤️
THE END (Or maybe just a beginning 🙂
___


So, the thing is : a possibility to look for surrounding spotify users and see what they are listening. A possibility to connect to their song. A possibility to turn ON or turn OFF music sharing (maybe you would like a private moment, and dont want to see everyone listening for your "shame songs" haha!

I personally really really often pass a person with headphones and am very very curious, what they are listening to that moment.

LIKE THIS IDEA? PLEASE VOTE UP AND LETS CREATE EVEN BETTER, CONNECTED SPOTIFY COMMUNITY 

Cheers,

Yes - great idea.  Would work well in tandem with my “Frequency with Friends”.  We are on the edge of a new sharing era.

Beautiful idea. Some people like me are shy to iniciate a conversation with strangers in public, this could be motivational to start one! Now about the location, it could be added a custom range of distance to show that people on a map, imagine people trying to search each others like pokemons in Pokemon Go XD specially with not "popular" songs, not bad. This can work in the android app but what about the windows version? Not all the ISPs show the precise location, plus idk if would be annoying you at home (with pc or mobile) and people outside trying to find you, ofc should have an option to deactivate this. After all,you NEED to implement this, we really need it for a better world ;).
