The Spotify Family plan is increasing by two euros, to £16.99 ($20.52).

This is as of 2021, where are you getting that it's £3 a month? That's £203.88 a year.

Where are you buying your albums? How is it that they're all new releases, are you not recognizing that most of your music is not a release? How often do you listen to a full, new album? You likely don't listen to more than 20 new songs a month anyways, unless you're discovering a new genre. However, again, that's not what this post is about, it's about lowering the quality of the free features.

A family plan is shared between 6 accounts, I pay 1/6 of the cost. I probably listen to hundreds of new songs every month.
