Why did Spotify stop using P2P technology?

>>57328861
Because dedicated servers are faster. They use amazon

Streaming is cancer anyways.

You use MacOS too, and store your data in "The Cloud"?

>>57329125
Yes, because I have nothing to hide.

>>57328881
This is exactly why.

How? Why own any digital media?
>>57329125
I don't use MacOS. The only thing I keep in the cloud are essays/reports etc. Is there something wrong w/ that?

>How? Why own any digital media?
I own CDs, DVDs and Blurays, but only to rip them.

They used their dedicated servers when needed, and P2P otherwise (most of the time). Why does this matter?

No idea, but some (shitty) ISPs throttle P2P connections so that could be why, although I don't see how that would matter, given the size of the bit density of the files (not high).

People would keep sneaking malware into the songs.

P2P encryption is a thing. Furthermore, music files have standardised file formats and hence can only be played as music, as they are non executable and can only be interpreted by media players.
