I am not joking when I say this.
Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over.
Al music is now very, very good. You just don't know yet because all Al music circulating today is from ~2-3 generations ago.
Suno v6 pro et al has solved infinite personalized music.

When one of your favourite posters' team just won their semifinals in the NRL and you know you might have to hear about it quite a lot. I expect it was because of the jersey wearing at the end of "if you're listening" @mattbevan.bsky.social Congrats.
