This list conclusively proves that democracy needs to be destroyed and replaced by a one-party totalitarian Maoist government

    One saving grace I’d argue is that a lot of this isn’t “active” streaming, but rather businesses, public spaces, etc., just putting on Top 40 playlists as background music.

      This shit still annoys me. The internet and Spotify (despite being owned by a combination of techbros and record label ghouls) gives us the option to really put some variety and creativity into day-to-day musak. My job has a Spotify and a couple of coworkers in the past have put on some real Clear Channel shit. Like, what's the point then?

        Thst happens in literally every workplace. That's what people like and they're okay with hearing only 5 songs over and over. It sucks

        I have a guy at work who plays the same 10-15 song playlist every single day, half of it this stuff in the op and half of it the worst trance remixes of popular songs I've ever heard. I don't tend to get angry, but that shit has led me to literally yell at him to please turn it off because I'm going insane. Like, I'm spending hours finding new cool music that I think my co-workers will like, listen to feedback, tailoring playlists for different times of day so we can have a good flow in the kitchen and this fucker just plays shit like this on repeat trump-anguish
