2017 actually

i wish people would understand that other than buying physical CDs to support ur fav artist, streaming on spotify also allows them to "earn" (avex, if not ayu) by number of streams. only ayufans would buy CDs immediately upon release dates. Spotify opens the option to non-fans to "explore" her music, and fall in love with her, AND buy her CDs to further support her. All artists need financing to continue creating music. I especially love the fact that Spotify has live recordings of concerts too~~

At least since the early 00's musics, videos and games has starting to become pretty much an imaterial product, with this possibility becoming more frequent and accessible over years. In a world with less and less space and more and more trash and overuse of raw material related problems caused by excess of consumerism, not needing a new physical media that more frequently than not will end up just collecting dust or thrown away, consuming digital medias is actually a good thing.

If the music doesn't need the CDs anymore to be consumed, considering the physical media to be "real music" is... kinda stupid to be honest. If people prefer buying it for whatever reason, that's fine, but the music isn't imprisoned on that disc, it's just a way to reproduce it.

I never use spotify, but I have it installed on my phone. Forgot my iPod when leaving the house the other day, and remembered spotify. Was checking it out...I'm glad so much of ayu's discography is on here, despite the miscategorizations! Sound quality was pretty decent too!

Very nice to see Out of control so high up... Great that people love this song even though it wasn't a single or got a PV... This song really deserves it!

I didn't even know they had added everything else, that's good to know!

[Machiko]

may or may have gotten spotify just for ayu. thanks ayu.

[Surreal17]

Damn, Spotify is not available in my country : (

[amorphose]

Oh wow.. Cool! Now I can listen to some of her stuff again! I haven't had any of her music downloaded in over a year since I got my new PC.

[TeamAyu2004]

I love the fact that she is on there now. Its so much easier then having her entire music on my phone. lol

[Cahz-]

Yeah one of my friend who loves Ayu (I forced him to) just told me how cool it is to have her on Spotify. He already downloaded CoLOURS. (I didn't know one could download albums from this platform too)

[MissElin_]

^Yeah, you can download music into the app itself so you can also listen to the music offline.
