streaming musicservices are beginning to compete directly. And it is that, until now, Spotify was the trend setter and the one who could boast of having the most useful tool. However, with the arrival of Apple Music, things have become a bit more interesting for users thanks to the competition generated. A somewhat superior music catalog and, above all, a new way of discovering songs have made Spotify get down to work to improve your service even moreThat is why it now has a new and interesting way to discover new music, related to the user's tastes, and which is expanded weekly.
Thus, until now, Spotify users had suggestions, playlists previously created, or that conform to a specific music style or to the user's favorite artists. Enough to stumble upon new songs eventually. But it is not the only way, nor the most effective. That's why it now launches Discover Weekly, something like discovery weekly. A section within the menu Explore where you don't stick to the same old music, discovering new artists and songs progressively more easily.
The idea is simple but clever: create a playlist with content for about two hours with tracks selected according to the tastes and musical habits of the user.So far nothing that Spotify didn't already do before. The good thing is that this list is renewed every Monday morning, trying to match users who take advantage of their first trip to work to use this music service . With this, there is no better excuse to listen to new music than to go through this section and see what new features the service has automatically introduced. Always keeping in mind that it is an intelligent and personalized function That is why, the more it is used, the more useful and fine-tuned with respect to to the tastes of the user will be.
In addition, this function Discover Weekly acts as a playlist to use. This means being able to select all those tracks that are of interest to the user and save them to their own lists, or even share them with people and contacts who also use Spotify Issues that give even more possibilities to this new weekly updated playlist.
At the moment only beta or trial users have had access to this feature, which is already beginning to reach users everywhere the world with the latest version of the apps of Spotify The reviews are quite positive, although , with little time of use, the recommendations of this new service still seem somewhat generic. It remains to be seen if, over time, he manages to stand up to the way in which Apple has decided to suggest new music. In his case based on the knowledge of real people, and not on programs, this being one of its differentiating points and that offers added value to its service. Will Spotify be able to stand up and defend its throne?
