I mean fair enough, i use this version of Spotify and don’t pay them a single cent: https://bestforandroid.com/apk/spotify-premium-mod-apk/
But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :-O Funnily there isn’t even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.
As a broke mofo who has quit streaming music and have a growing cd collection yes the quantity is lacking (I’m usually able to afford a new lp a week currently have 8), but I have found that I enjoy the music more than I did before, and in the end, every album I buy is mine forever which means that I don’t have to worry about some obscure artist’s stuff being removed from streaming services (which has happened to me on more than one occasion)
For me music is a hobby and streaming services cheapen music to the point of being background noise
