Create a Spotify Wrapped Year in Review

I guess so. It wasn’t very clear

I have a visual picture of me throwing small pebbles from the beach, while a ocean liner pulls into dock :wink:

If I were Roon I’d at least implement the necessary API calls and maybe a yearly export of aggregated / anonymised data and see what the community could come up with in terms of visualisations.

They could even turn it into a competition for developers, with prizes — a lifetime Roon sub, a Nucleus or maybe some kit left over from Roon Ready testing that a manufacture agreed to donate in return for a bit of sponsorship — for the best efforts. Handled well, that in itself could generate some free publicity for Roon.

TBH I think for it to get any traction outside of Roon it would need to be more than just basic listening stats ie. it could show global yearly trends, how far your tastes diverged from the ‘norm’ or personally over time, make up some fun segmentation names / groupings, give you some fun/critical feedback on your listening habits — you could certainly have fun using an LLM to generate some scathing commentary there!

Yep.

Not sure why that other person thinks money converts to the same amount for every country.

My total came to $1,256 for the subscription. Was more than I wanted to spend. I didn’t realise it was showing me the price in US dollars because it didn’t specifically state it anywhere. But I do like the software very much.

Not sure why it wouldn’t be shareable? You don’t need links to lead anywhere. You can just use a photo.

I’d be happy with something like this. This is mine for the 10months of the year I was using YouTube music before switching to Roon and Tidal.

It’s just nice to see and fun to share it around. And again. YouTube Music, at least has about a dozen different slides. This image is just the final one. But all ones before it have nice little stats and listening patterns from the year.

He didn’t - you didn’t make it clear that you were talking about Australian dollars - hence the confusion.

I get that. But just assuming everyone lives in the US is a bit daft.

A lot of other countries out there, ha.

Maybe it’s daft to assume that everyone lives in Australia :wink: For basically the whole world except Australia, “$” is considered the currency sign for the US Dollar.

Live and learn I suppose.

I immediately assumed $AUD, as I was mulling over lifetime recently and that was my quote.
But yes, $ is $USD unless noted as local currency.
Understandable error…

I realise it’s not the “review” you desire, but you have seen the “History” as well? You can see any detail you’d like about your play history. I can’t remember if it’s possible to export it. If so, you could ask Copilot, ChatGPT etc to do the review for you?

A number of months ago, I setup ListenBrainz to sync from Last.fm. So basically my scrobling goes Roon > Last.fm > ListenBrainz.

The sync from Last.fm to ListenBrainz is not always instant. There can be short delays, but overall it is more than acceptable. It also takes all of your Last.fm history, so not only from the moment you start the sync.

ListenBrainz gives some nice additional stats and lists that are not available on Last.fm. There are views on This Week, Last Week, This Month, Last Month, This Year, Last Year and All Time. The “This …” are updated frequently, so “This Year” builds up throughout the year, so you basically have a year in review any time during the year

Here’s a link to my page:

Alas, Export of History is limited to just exporting files to a folder. Export to Soundiiz or Excel are not supported. There is a sort of workaround by first creating a Playlist from History tracks, and then using Export to create a spreadsheet from that, but it’s just a list of tracks that have been played, with no indication of when they have been played.

Voting on these feature suggestions is encouraged :slightly_smiling_face:

Ha, you got me Geoff! I discovered these caveats this morning, trying to create an example with Copilot.

Interesting. Could you do a basic “how to” for this? Could be worthy of its own thread!

Here you go…
