Spotify Wrapped made me miss the radio this year

[phillynews215]

I’ve never been a big fan of the radio. In fact, I’ve had Spotify Premium (https://www.androidauthority.com/how-much-is-spotify-premium-3088090/) for years to avoid listening to commercials and lame jokes to start my day — ironic, given the state of most podcasts. And yet, there’s something about the 2024 edition of Spotify Wrapped (https://www.androidauthority.com/spotify-wrapped-2024-3505338/) that made me — or at least a small part of me — miss the feeling of listening to the radio. It brought back some unpredictability that I’d lost while carefully curating playlist after playlist, and it might have sold me on Spotify’s use of AI. Here’s why.

Don’t worry, Wrapped hasn’t (really) changed
