    Source that providing lyrics to songs is a requirement?

      Providing a substantially inferior outcome to someone with an ADA need absolutely violates ADA rules.

      When stuff like this has gone to court it hasn’t been pretty for the offending organization.

      There’s a bigger question about how much of what Spotify currently provides falls under ADA. Web services used to get a free pass. They largely don’t anymore.

      Source: some of this stuff is my problem, professionally. And no, I’m not going to look up a primary source for anyone. That’s Spotify’s lawyers job.

        So no, just talking out of your ass then.

        You can Google the lyrics to songs on any device you can view them on Spotify.

            Do lyrics fall under the same regulation as subtitles? If Netflix were free, would it still be subject to those requirements?
