It very much is and Spotify would definitely get sued if they weren’t paying. I got a cease and desist for an app I made about a decade ago for this very thing

The issue isn’t the storage, it’s the copyright holders
You and I can do that but they’re not just caching they’re redistributing which requires royalties
This one is actually out of their hands. Lyrics aren’t free sadly and they have to pay for API calls. It’s fucking stupid but the labels are the ones at fault here.
Fuck Spotify nonetheless.
I guarantee some smarmy PM said it in Teams when a developer asked this question.
True. Imposters are among us.
Pretty often. People are still able to get fun usernames right now so they’re more memorable
Oh if you’re thinking diy then yeah this won’t affect DIY at all. DIYs are all Frankensteins anyway
I can assure you that we won’t. There has not been a time in the history of this country that lower competition has resulted in improved products or prices.
There is zero US based competition in the hobbyist and consumer spaces unless you DIY. US companies mostly do products for emergency services, large commerical operations like spraying pesticides, or military. There are a handful of brands making smaller drones, but they’re all a decade behind DJI in features and quality control, or they cost $20,000.
I’d be fine with a ban if there was a legitimate security concern, but there isn’t, this is just part of the trade war and it only stands to harm US consumers and small businesses. The entire aerial photography industry is going to collapse and one’s only option will be large companies with hex rotor drones and Red cameras.
Good point. Unfortunate that US consumers keep getting screwed by these bans
This is honestly ridiculous. The security concerns are unwarranted. Any surveillance that these drones could accomplish if hacked can just be bought off of any GIS website.
“But military bases” go fly a drone by one and see what happens. This already isn’t a surveillance concern.
This is going to set the hobbyist and professional drone market back a decade.
I have yet to see that happen. If anything they’ll just raise their prices because they no longer have any competitors.
Using other peoples’ money technically satisfies his goal
I loved everything about 6 except for that mobile game art style. I didn’t really like the fog of war being a map but that was easy to fix with a mod
Meanwhile every update makes the app worse
Okay, brain organoid
Red Alert 2. Any N64 game at high resolutions. Command & Conquer Generals at high resolution. If you can’t tell, I like cartoon aesthetics.
The cyber truck is safe for pedestrians. Can’t hit a pedestrian if it never leaves the repair bay for recalls.
The sad part is that this tool would be very useful if it wasn’t being made and operated by ghouls. If it was fully self hosted and encrypted then this would be amazing.
It does unless they agree to let you redistribute the lyrics without one. Lyrics are copyrighted.

You may get lucky and have a band that doesn’t care or won’t notice your operation, but Spotify has music from the big labels and they do care and they will notice.
