Spotify supports this already (between any devices you’re logged into), and it’s suuuuuuuuuuuper nice. This is gonna be an excellent QoL upgrade.

On a related note, does anyone know of cases with a headphone jack built into it? It seems like an obvious thing to make, but I’ve only seen them mentioned for iPhone.

The main thing for me is simply that the audio connector doesn’t pull out nearly as easily as USB-c. Secondary is the fact that I prefer things that don’t need to be charged.

I use wireless buds at work, but whenever I’m home, I prefer to use wired headphones. It’s definitely a different strokes for different folks situation.

I think there’s some nuance there too. I’m not keen on the idea of my facebook messages, or google chats, or private emails, things like that going into other peoples hands (regardless of how much I can do to stop it), but purely ad-based stuff doesn’t bother me. I’m gonna be seeing ads for something, and whether or not they’re things google or amazon think I might want doesn’t really change the equation for me.

However, I do hold it to be true people should be in control of that if they want to. I feel like the choice is important.
