Or they may just not bother since they are doing so well with focus elsewhere ...

Hehe. Read my lips...
"company’s CEO, Daniel Ek, confirmed that a better-than-Premium offering is still in the works — though he offered no firm timetable as to when it’ll be available."

Jeez that will be a few years then.
At least the CEO is enthusiastic about it, probably because of all the extra revenue for his "deluxe" offering.

I'm not paying more for lossless than Tidal or Qobuz, maybe a pound or two but not five. I'd like a Spotify music only option for less money, but I'm not holding my breath? Deluxe my arse! I'm considering a Hegel H190v which would mean just one box to replace my current four and Spotify works well on a Hegel, as does DLNA/UPnP for my music server. The new 'v' adds a MM phono, which is a first for them. So I'd just have a turntable, amp and two speakers that does everything - I'd be very happy with that

Perhaps they have stopped wasting money on tedious podcasts?

According to AI generated / curated info it's because "Spotify has evolved in several ways, including: Social platform Spotify has become a social ecosystem where users curate playlists and connect with artists. New mobile interface Spotify's new mobile interface is designed to help users discover new audio and connect with artists. It includes advanced recommendations, visual canvases, and an interactive design. AI Playlist Spotify Premium subscribers can use AI Playlist to create personalized playlists based on prompts. Curation Spotify's curation makes it easier to discover new music. A 2017 study found that listeners who switched to streaming for six months increased the number of artists they played by 32%. Podcasts Spotify has seen an increase in podcast listening, especially in the health and wellness categories. Workout playlists Spotify users have been creating and following more workout playlists. International success Spotify has scaled up faster than its competitors, operating in over 180 countries. Direct public offering Spotify went public on the New York Stock Exchange in April 2018. Payouts to music rights holders Spotify pays nearly 70% of every dollar it generates for music back to the industry. " There, bet you enjoyed that Martin😂 If it had Hifi / hi-res it would be perfect, no?🙂
