    But for Spotify they are tracking how many times you played different songs. Not trying to defend them, but for a music service I’m pretty sure they need to track that kind of information regardless. Might as well tally it up and show your own data to you

        They need that assigned to specific use accounts so that people can look at their play history. A thing that people often want to do with their music players.

        If they did that it would be far too easy for people to boost listens and ratings with bots
