You aren't wrong. I went back and forth on whether to include them. The reality is that everyone knows Spotify and far better to educate people on why NOT to support them (hence being red and with a disclaimer).

    People increasingly want their voices heard and are taking action by choosing the companies they support.

    These can be due to privacy concerns, environmental reasons, boycotting US companies, or other causes.

    Doesnโ€™t the premise imply that Spotify should be in the left column instead then?

    The service being โ€œsuperiorโ€ or convenient is counter to the argument.

    Personally, I would have them on the left column, but there is a general divide in the EU community on whether they should still be encouraged as a "lesser of two evils". As a compromise, I have left them in with a huge disclaimer. https://purchasewithpurpose.eu/software/D5JUoM1dZysf7JJgTAWXy/

    Oh, how I WISH Qobuz gets the same excellent feature as Tidal has - when you share a link to an artist/album/track from Tidal, and someone else clicks it, two things can happen:

    1. If they have Tidal, it will just open the artist/album/track in the app.
    2. If they don't have Tidal, it will open a Tidal-hosted page with links to the shared content on YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, and a couple of other streaming services.

    It just magically solves all the issues with people not wanting to switch because they like sharing their music.

    I also found Tidal had the edge in user experience. I'm wondering how Deezer competes, as that is the next one for me to try.
