The leading company in streaming music services wants to create a middle path between "Premium" and "Free" users with the launch of a new plan that will allow you to get rid of the hassle of not paying for Spotify, in part.
Plus is the new Spotify plan that costs less than one euro and will allow you to remove some of the limitations of the "free" model, although perhaps not as you expected. This risky move by Spotify comes just with the launch of YouTube Lite, although keeping the distances with respect to the essential sense of the payment model.
The first thing is to mention that the service is only in trial format for some selected users, so you will not be able to subscribe yet. In principle Spotify is determined to launch this new subscription plan, although its operation is being analyzed by its technical team.
The intention of Spotify Plus is improve the user experience, the limit of jumps between songs will be eliminated and you will be able to individually choose which songs or specific albums you want to listen to without any type of limit or randomness. However, it will not eliminate one of the most negative points of Spotify Free, which is precisely the ads. You will continue to have to endure the publicity between song and song, so the freedom in this plan has been limited.
In the same way, Spotify Plus proposes to allow the expansion of Spotify Connect. also to those devices that only allow Spotify playback when we are dealing with a "Premium" subscription, as is the case with some smart speakers. A radical change compared to YouTube Lite, that the only thing it has done has been to eliminate the ads without adding any extra capacity to its plan that will cost 6,99 euros. These price adjustments will always be welcome, what about Apple Music?
