GOOD READ
For Harper's Magazine, Liz Pelly shares an excerpt from her new book, Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist, out now:
"A model in which the imperative is simply to keep listeners around, whether they’re paying attention or not, distorts our very understanding of music’s purpose."
Thanks for listening!
