Bit of a strange target for outrage. Almost all of the streaming services listed are paid for by subscription, purchase or taxes. So the "pay what you wish" model for some improved ergonomics is not unreasonable. The minimum price is $3.99/year, of which the team gets $3.50.
Or if that's too much, get stuck in. How many minutes of your time would you value at $3.50?

at this point chrome and firefox both have media keys support, and it works on the major streaming services. so within the past few months it's become not a great choice.
Have my multimedia in browsers, kde recognizes it and media controls work within taskbar preview, notification area and - most important - with the media keys.
Plus: Browsers are more secure and no need for other applications.
Yeah. For a moment I found this interesting but then I remembered that KDE Plasma has perfect integration with all of the streaming services I use through my browser. It seems to just work without any additional software. You can even control media from an Android phone if you have the KDE Connect app installed.
I actually paid for this feature thinking it was ok because I wanted to support them anyway. But the 8tracks client has been broken for a long time and I was paying for a feature that didn't work

Are in the premium tier? Are you kidding me!
