I'm trying it out the premium service, and so far it's pretty good. 

 

FYI - There is currently a promo going on as mentioned HERE where you pay $9.99 (in Canada) for the first month, and you get 2 more months free.  Ends up being $3.33 a month for 3 months.  In the US it's even cheaper at $0.99 first month + 2 months free, which is $0.33 for 3 months - yup, we're paying 10x the price up here in Canada.  Promo ends Dec. 31.

It's a good music service, has helped me discover artists that I otherwise wouldn't have, but it can't stop me from buying an album from an artist I really like, such as the new imagine dragons album due in February.

Yep, been using Spotify (Premium) for about a year now and I've never looked back. I used to download all of my music, but as I've found out 95% of the music I listen to is on Spotify, so I've switched to the good side and have zero plans to start downloading music ever again. :)

I use it. Get it for £5 a month which makes it even better.

Same here.

 

The only complain I have is when you have multiple albums of one artist as playlists grouped together in a folder you just cant playback the whole folder; You have to either choose one playlist or create a new one with all albums in it.

At least they got one thing right. When you have one song in different playlists which you saved for offline use, the song isn't going to be downloaded again.

Did you know this forum has an unofficial/official Star Citizen group? Head over to our organization's page, numerous forum threads or our LTTC Discord Server to find out more.

Spotify is not great.

The web site and player is super intensive. Poorly optimize.

Xbox music is far superior, and that is what i have now.

Also it is cheaper.

$4.99 is for students. Just put on there you are a student, you don't need a school email. It's great lol
