    Because that’s how it worked until Spotify wanted to wring more money out of people.

      You say “more money,” but this person is on free tier. They are paying nothing and they expect more. Is that not entitlement? I’m not some raving capitalist, but isn’t it okay to charge money for certain services?

        When a company offers free services and then starts charging after people start using them(or in the case of OP, become dependent on them) then it’s complete bullshit. Now you can’t trust free services because a company can just decide it’s not free whenever they want.

            The fact you’re reaching this far means you got the point but you have to “win” or some shit. Bye.
