I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”.

Why am I seeing ads if I’m already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

    Because tons of apps play music and Spotify recommends music?

      spotify not being based around playing music because other services also play music is definitely one of the takes of all time

        See when you sell a product, you come up with what’s called a “features/benefits list” and this list should differentiate you from competitors

        Kind of an important part of launching a product.
