<p>Why I stay:<p>1. family plan that I run. my parents and siblings all use it.<p>2. social. Sharing playlists matters to me, and everyone else uses spotify. This is also important in my romantic pursuits.<p>3. It has 10+ years of my listening history; the recommendations are decent, and my playlists go that far back.<p>4. whatever UI issues it has (and I can name a few off the top of my head), I don't find it difficult to use at all, and I'm used to its quirks.</p>

<p>I definitely enjoy Wrapped. But also something that keeps me in Spotify is the social aspect. If I want to make a playlist for someone, 95% of people I know use Spotify, so I need to have Spotify.</p>
