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...

I cancelled it when they started to crack down on family plans with separate households. It just wasn't worth the money to me anymore. I wonder how much more price hikes the remaining customers are going to tolerate. At some point it becomes cheaper to just outright buy music..

Probably is cheaper for a lot of people who just listen to the same stuff week after week
