Yes but that's just for content Netflix owns. Spotify has like 99% of all music ever put out. It's really quite a bargain if you are a music fan. The family account for £14.99 works out good value if you need extra accounts, I have one for me, the other half and the kids.

I'm considering ditching Amazon Music in favour of Spotiify as there seems to be a lot more content and the sound quality is a little better too.

i dont want to pay for Spotify because i consider its stranglehold on the music industry bad for most music creators. buy your music or use Bandcamp which gives a lot more to each artist!

Do what I do then and use a hacked version of Spotify which provides all the features of their premium service for a low low monthly payment of £0.00

I still buy most music on CD and have bought a fair amount via Bandcamp.

I think this is going to annoy him even more given the artists get strawberry float all from your approach
Edit: actually I suppose it depends if your plays in the hacked version are registered for artist payment

I prefer to buy my music so Spotify is more of a place of last resort for me, to listen to things I can't find elsewhere. The downside of that is that I have songs albums suddenly unavailable due to rights issues. Oh, I do use it sometimes to find new bands, but then go out and buy the album if I can.

Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar - 9/10
Its just magnificently produced from start to finish, sounds just as good as it did when I first heard it in 1996.
Loses a point for a couple of filler tracks here and there but even then they still add to the overall experience.

It's Lars Ulrich's fault for killing Napster.

Krauty, synthy, bass groove rock. Me like a lot. Brean Down is my fave. Overall, a solid 8/10, with the potential to rise. Oo-er!

Only just realised that I get 6 months of free Spotify Premium with my Samsung phone so I'll definitely be trying that out!
Can't wait to embark on a 6 month odyssey of exploring all the many wild wonderful different types of music they have available on the service.
Either that or y'know just play all the stuff that I already own ad infinitum!

It's actually pretty good for discovering new music without much effort. It makes playlists for you based on what you listen to and I've found a decent number of new artists that way. I assume they have wealth of data on people's listening habits so that drives it.
