Are people really unsubbing over a dollar a month? Seems kinda insignificant if you’re actually using the service.
Ado@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Nah, but people on the internet love to pretend. I just hope this price hike benefits the artists at least somewhat.

The people that do we’re already considering it. Each hike you reevaluate if you actually need the service and at some point you drop it.

I’d complain, except it hasn’t gone up in a decade.
Prices needs to go up a little bit every year to reflect CPI and inflation.

Lol. I stopped paying when price grew from 4,99 a month.

The latest price hike finally got me to unsub

I quit a few weeks ago … couldn’t stand the infernal podcast promotions that never ended. Until I cut the cord!

Seriously!! I listened to one podcast one time and now my whole front page on mobile AND CarPlay is all podcasts. The CarPlay is what I care about more because I’m fucking driving you can’t navigate to find new music. It’s mind blowing

Damn, thank you for reminding me to cancel my subscription.
Yoz@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I never had a subscription. If you guys use android, go to fdroid and download musify or black hole. Save your $$ and avoid buying stuff from Google, Amazon, spotify and Facebook. Save internet from going to shits.

Meh, overhyped. Prime music ftw

Supporting Amazon? I’d pass.

Yep, better bit rate as well

I’m not sure why so many Apple folk use Spotify. I prefer Apple Music. Also, the new included Apple Classical App is fantastic. Spotify offers a shit experience for classical music lovers.

And still underpaying the artists compared to Apple Music

It’s revenue share with the record labels. If those labels don’t pay the artists well that’s a different issue.

I release independently and I earned a whopping $43 for 50k+ streams (so far). Sure, 50k isn’t much compared to mainstream artists, but $43 isn’t much either.
