BTW there is a way to import CD's to Spotify, but it's convoluted. It's one of the reasons I've considered switching to Prime Music or whatever it's called.
Anyway, I just think it's lame. He put out an album so removes his albums at the same time to try to drive others to Tidal. Boo. I think these exclusives are dumb.
I fear it sets a sketchy precedent. I worry of a future where instead of paying $9/mo for Spotify you're asked to spend $9/mo for Sony Music On Demand and $9 for Universal Music On Demand and $9 for...

I didn't think you
didn't have an iPod. Or MP3 player of some kind. That's what I meant... not "iPod" specifically but "iPod
or whatever.
Like, I use my iPod to listen to music a lot because it's just in my car, on a mount, and it has a ton of space, and it just plays music. I'm constantly using my phone for everything under the goddamn sun, so it's easier for me to just use my iPod (or whatever!) like a CD player instead of draining the battery to play music when I need it for other stuff.
Anyway, I think I read that Jay's albums disappeared from Spotify a while ago. Like, maybe a month?
EDIT: FUCK, I just checked Apple Music and while most of his albums are still there, Reasonable Doubt and Blueprint are not. What the fuck? Those are the albums most people will want to play if they want to hear Jay Z.
