a good way to insure you don't get any of my wallet-share

update (2016-01-01): FML, we’ve all succumbed to this, for there’s no way around this.

#1 with a bullet - mandate facebook as the authentication mechanism.

seriously, i’m looking at you spotify. i would like to like you. the reviews are pretty consistently positive, the pricing seems reasonable and the music selection appears to be pretty good.

but i go to sign up and you require that i link to a facebook account. no. i would like to moderate my interaction with that petri dish, thankyouverymuch. that’s a deal breaker for me. you know, i’d even be willing to pay a bit more to not have to use facebook auth. howsabout hooking a brother up there?
