I find it interesting, how Spotify is often mentioned as the standard service because last time I used it, it struggled with similar issues as the video streaming platforms, that not every song I want to listen to is available

I have the same issue with Java. Oracle JDK, Open JDK or some other weird distribution? Enteprise Servers or a Framework like Springboot? It's always easier if you're familiar with the technology.

At the current moment, for practical applications, I agree. But at what point does an idea become worth investigating? Maybe a Sci-Fi screenwriter wants to have a futuristic but theoretically possible transport system between colonies on a moon with low gravity or sth

Would this work better, if the "train" were so long that it would always be in contact with at least 2 rings? Also assuming that the rings are passive and the active components would be entirely on the train itself, similar to the Chūō Shinkansen. Either way, this is even more unrealistic than building a tube in the sky as a continuous guideway aka Hyperloop

I suppose one could make an argument that some people sell to pawn shops when they're in desperate need of money. Also isn't there that meme, where the pawn shopkeeper ridiculously undercuts the value of what you bring them only to then sell it at a huge markup?
