Hello and welcome to another issue of the Spotify Newsletter! It’s another fun week of news from the streaming music behemoth.
All is relatively calm in the Spotify kingdom. There is news of a toe-dip into the NFT pool, as Spotify experiments with musician NFT galleries. It’s all NFT these days, apparently, so now Spotify is testing a way for artists to display their non-fungible token (NFT) collections.
Now that Spotify Stations is a memory, I did dabble with the Spotify Radio function. There’s definitely similarities, so all is not lost. It’s not the same, obviously, but I’ll stick with it to see if Radio can somehow fill the massive void in my heart / music streaming routine.
As always… thanks for reading! 🎵
