    Interesting Spotify Car Thing



    It's by invitation only right now, but you can put yourself on the list.

    https://carthing.spotify.com






    https://support.spotify.com/us/artic...ing-car-thing/


    Looks pretty cool and I believe it's free if you get one of the invites (not sure where I read that, but pretty sure I remember seeing it).

    Mine too? I'm failing to see the point? I use Spotify (sparingly) iHeart mostly, but always via my phone and the free apps. Maybe they plan to do away with the free app? On an aside, my new work truck came with the standard 90 days free Sirius/ XM. The sound quality on sat radio has really badly gone down. So much so I wouldn't use it even free.

    I'm actually pretty interested in this!

    One of our cars has CarPlay/Android Auto which is wicked so it's not necessary, but our other car just has standard Bluetooth. In my province it's forbidden to touch your phone while driving so you run the risk of a fat ticket for just scrolling through spotify at a red light.... I think this might be okay though because it's basically the same as Carplay? I'd want to check the law though because the distracted driving tickets are something like $400 now.
