Example: Mine is Pandora, but I’ve used Jango for more independent artists as well.

Similar - I signed up for my Spotify account with a VPN, as it was only available in Europe / UK / something like that. Have been paying for as long as I can remember.

With our family account, we had a house account, wife, mother, grandmother, and myself. In reality, only 2 of those accounts really got used.

The family verification emails were definitely annoying. But the yearly price hike with few important feature improvements, combined with things like audiobooks being for the primary account only, caused me to re-eval.

Now, my wife is on a student plan on Spotify, and I’m trialing Tidal. I expect to stick with Tidal based on lossless and higher pay for artists. If I don’t, I’ll likely swing over to Apple Music. Switching and migrating playlists is pretty painless, overall.

In any case, I’m glad I’m out of that abusive relationship with Spotify.
