People on here are acting like Spotify raises their price every two weeks like Netflix or something. This is an added feature that will likely not raise the costs to the user as it is intended to reduce the part of revenue they give to music labels (i.e. this helps keep the price you pay the same because they can't make a profit, so the alternative is higher prices)
you mean something like this https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-07-24/adjusting-our-spotify-premium-prices/ ?
Yeah, their first price hike in something like 10 years and it's a 1$ raise, which is less than inflation.
It's their second hike. They raised it $1 in 2021, then again in 2023.
technically you're correct, but this depends on the country and/or plan. For example family plan in europe is increased by 3 EUR
I understand why the family plan got raised by 3EUR as it has 6 users total, so a 0.50€ per user raise. Though I understand this is a bigger increase, it is kind of like cell operators in Canada, they give you 40GB for 50$ instead of like 5GB for 10$, the plans are artificially more expensive even though per GB Its cheaper
