Spotify is making room for big brands such as AT&T, Intel and McDonald's in its app store. Soon, you will be able to add these commercial creations to your Spotify account and discover new music from their points of view. But you may see things in a different light. Already this year, we've had controversy over Google's new privacy policy that digs deeper into the data it has on you. Facebook's purchase of Instagram caused an outcry from fans of the relatively intimate (40 million users) network. And cellphone carriers , along with cable providers, have been the target of customer dissatisfaction for their pricing, contract terms and service quality. So we've put together our own playlist for companies that have generated consumer ire . Enjoy.
(If you have Spotify on your computer, you can listen to our playlist right here.)
