Show HN: A newsletter you get as calendar events, not emails

Drop Date delivers song recommendations to your calendar, not your inbox.

I wanted to write and self-distribute a music newsletter, but email just felt too heavy and people's inboxes are already cluttered.

So instead I built it so you subscribe through your calendar. Add the URL and twice a week a gentle event reminder comes up showing you the song for that day.

It includes a brief story about the song and a link to Spotify and YouTube. And if you want to stop receiving it, you can just unsubscribe straight from your calendar. No muss, no fuss.

It's also free. Give it a spin and let me know what you think. (please)(and thank you!)
