Subscription price creep. My favorite.

Honestly after so long, I can't mind too much. As long as they don't start pulling a Netflix and increasing the price every 6 months

Edit: it's been 12 years and it's going up a dollar. I've been paying $10 a month for the last 8 years out of the 10 I've used Spotify. A dollar extra ain't too bad

If my spotify goes up, i'm out. All it does is allow you to play music. Why does that even has to be €10 a month sounds more like a €2 service to me, considering an album used to cost between 5€ and 20€ and you basically get the music for a lifetime if you were smart about it and kept a digital copy.

No i'm not going free, because ads are a scam. "If you listen to this ad you'll get an ad free experience for 30 minutes" .5 seconds after i let the ad play: a wild ad appears. The same goes for youtube, the claim it only has one ad at the start, but in reality i get 3 at the start 2 in between and one right before it ends on a 7min video.
