There’s an adage around social media platforms and their associated apps and service: If you’re not paying for it, then you’re the product. It’s entirely reductive, of course – but it’s the belief that if a website or service is pending its time and resources to give you content without asking for anything in return, then they are probably selling information about you to others to make money, to sell ads or worse – some other nefarious purpose.

There’s something absolutely magical about the right track at the right time on a lonely length of tarmac, that just lifts your spirits up and keeps your road senses sharp while your feet dance on the pedals.

As you likely already know, Spotify has officially launched in South Africa. After what seems like forever, the premier music streaming service is finally available to us. Here's why you should give it a try.

Whether it’s Google Play or Deezer (HE’S GOT A CD PLAYAH!), having a library of instant audio gratification at your fingertips is a mere credit card swipe away. Now, the field is going to get a little bit tighter, as the biggest player in music streaming is hitting the South African block: Spotify.

South Africa finally has a spot to strut its stuff on the grandest cosplay stage of them all: The World Cosplay Summit.
