    That somehow this site forget to mention
    Which is......
    Due to now certain movie only available on certain platform, many user were forced to have more than one movie account e.g. having HBO along with Netflix and Disney
    This make user angry, and somehow backfire.

No requirement for an Internet connection after downloading. We can also record on most devices with FM Radio support as well, without the use Internet connectivity, as long as the FM reception is good enough.

                you can also just pirate. it'll get you higher quality (depending on where you look) and more choice, all for free and with no ads

                  Looks like they finally listened to the user complains after long time free tier's downfall to make Spotify useful.

                  but, Piracy will never downfalls ;)

                    Download it once, then listen to it offline(the full song, not just 30 seconds), seek any part of the track you want, as many times as you want, whenever you want, repeat and no shuffle.

                    If all of that sounds like obvious features you should have always had, they're not, because you literally couldn't do anything without paying. I understand they need money, but they already have ads before each song. All this nonsense on top of that? It's just pure greed.

                      Lossless will be free next. 🤪

                        They are allowing it now because of Google's adblock clamp down

                          Finally, fixing what's probably the biggest pet peeve in the world

                            Now it's YouTube turn to up the ante

                              And yes that's good news. Will probably be on Spotify more.

                                I tried using Spotify free once and the only thing I could listen to were 2 ads and 3 unrelated songs, instead of the 1 song that I wanted to hear. Immediately uninstalled it. I use YouTube since that's much better.

                                  This is actually a big deal.

                                  I can finally say the free Spotify tier is better than the free Youtube Music tier because you can now:
                                  1. Pick freely
                                  2. Play in the background

                                  Previously, what made Spotify Free tier better was n. 2 alone & what set it back was the lack of n. 1.

                                  YouTube Music does not play in the background on mobile. (without using third party apps like Musi, which got banned from the Appstore)

I still buy CDs wherever possible but morally speaking I wouldn't be opposed to piracy if it meant I owned it, which a streaming service like Spotify would never provide anyway.

Spotify is now 17% less greedy with this move + the introduction of lossless audio for premium subscribers, but since their greed is still so high this isn't enough of a difference.

                                        I have been able to listen to any song i choose for a long time as free user. I dont think this is new?
