I've got the family subscription now, after initially being sceptical about Spotify, I now don't know what I'd do without it. Same here, daughter uses it all the time at Uni, I use it all the time at home - all for £15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 For anyone paying full price. If you went to Uni have a look if you can get an NUS card as it's quite often possible as an alumni. It is worth it for all the other discounts you can get to but the £4.99 for Spotify is where I save most money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a revolutionary change, IMO. The drawback isn't the monthly fee, it's that the service is internet dependent. That said, I really enjoy using it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im pretty sure if you save the songs you want it will download them when next connected to wifi and you can listen without internet. I do this and can still play them when im driving somewhere there is no chance of signal. Obviously you cant listen to stuff you havent saved but you soon build a decent sized playlist. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I save all my favorite playlists for offline play. Only downside of this is the space it takes up on your phone, especially if download the high quality files. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only takes a few minutes to get some good playlists synched offline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's my account and the one for the car because passengers want to put on the most dreadful shite, I was suffering from the same issue.

Other than that, Spotify is ace. Love the simple things like it alerting you when new albums are available to stream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I fookin love Spotify. For the money, it is a bargain. There isn't much that isn't on there from what I can see (caveat - my music tastes are pretty mainstream) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 My only gripe is that on the Android app I can't change the track positions in a playlist. It seems like a simple thing to implement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
