Opinion: 'Spotify is continuing the trend toward a pastiche approach to culture,' writes navalang. 'One in which we cobble together experiences rather than engaging with things that have been deliberately, even thoughtfully, put together.'
It’s a basic, perhaps unfortunate truism in life: the older you get, the more you miss the things from your youth that are gone.
I lament its absence because that focus on the album isn’t something that is shared by its competitors. Take, for example, the announced redesign of the world’s most popular music streaming service, Spotify. But its inevitability doesn’t make it good. After all, the Spotify redesign is one more nail in the coffin of the album. More importantly, it’s another shift toward a world in which “content” is dictated by algorithm.Yes, it’s convenient and affordable to have millions of songs at my fingertips. But convenience has its costs. I almost never listen to albums anymore.
But what is driving the shift is the attention economy, that term we give to the fact that capturing attention is the primary economic driver for digital apps.
