This is great news for Spotify, but a bit frustrating for me and I am sure plenty of others as individual investors.
This is great news for Spotify, but a bit frustrating for me and I am sure plenty of others as individual investors. So many great companies I am passionate about are just too hard to invest in before they go public. And you're in way too late at IPO stage. I keenly start following these types of companies a lot earlier than most of the general public, and I can bet I'm much more emotionally invested into seeing them succeed than a broker in a 100 story building ever will be. I understand their business models and want to give them money to help them grow. SpaceX is one example - all the investment banks have first rights on new issues and even waving a respectable amount at them doesn't help. And it's too difficult to get a feel for whether you are getting a "fair deal" on second market so to me it's not really a viable option even though the service is good in theory. Awesome, and frustrating, at the same time!

The biggest problem with this is if the target URL doesn't load but also doesn't quickly error out, like e.g.
Google wants to build up a private web here.
