I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers...

Just leaving this here from the excellent !PurchaseWithPurpose@lemmy.world
From that chart Qobuz seems to be the all round best deal. Is there any catch?
I use Qobuz! It works well most the time. And it has a huge library. Some things are not as polished as some of the bigger companies. And there's a lot of Initial setup to get it working..
That said, I would say it's a great option. I do wish it had better continuous play options, as sometimes I listen to a playlist, and then it just stops. But that may be part of the learning curve. I'm not really a big "playlists" guy.. I'd like to start a radio and have it find similar artists (similar to Pandora 12 years ago) But that doesn't really seem to be the way companies are going anymore.
I have several Google mini devices (I know, I know. I'm working on it, but that's a whole other process) and they don't really seem to get along with qobuz all the time.
Overall, I like it, but it still needs work.
