1. Many of them are 3D, that is not a differentiator in the slightest. 2. Again, these features are already prevalent or under active development by many of your competitors. 3.Also not novel.

In fairness, would you mind referencing some of the similar services?

Seems like a good spot to comment that I've been tossing around a similar idea, but related to creating personal spaces instead.

Context: we moved into a much smaller house a few years back and I miss having a room dedicated to shelves, both for books and for music. But most of my reading and listening has moved to digital anyway, so there's really no need for such a space anyway. But it would be amazing to have a digital rendition of such a space, particularly if it could be done in VR. Ideally would tie in with APIs such as Goodreads or Spotify, so you could visualise your digital library in a physical space.

And like with haram_masala's comment [0] about having some "classic office layouts", this would do the same but with classic libraries or record stores.

And now I am stuck in the tutorial because it wants me to zoom in and out with the mouse wheel or the track pad, and I am at my desk with my computer closed and plugged into my monitor and my Wacom tablet and it doesn't recognize using the touch ring set to 'scroll'. It…

I think they shut down Mailinator emails (tried Mailismagic and mailinator and both times I was "unauthorized")

Sorry this was a sendgrid issue that has now been fixed

"For the best Spot experience, we recommend using Google Chrome on a non-mobile device." And what do you recommend on mobile device?

A mobile device is not recommended.

Vrland.io works on mobile devices via mobile web. Also works in VR.
