I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers…

    They do not want you offline.

    I hate that it hangs loading for so lomg before admitting defeat and showing the offline listings.

      Yes! It always does the loading spin animation for like 10 seconds before it shows me my downloaded album. And some albums just never work at all. I have to go online and then offline again just to make it work at all, which defeats the purpose of being offline in the first place.

      I just started my free qobuz trial though, and canceled my Spotify account. I mentioned their CEO as the reason I canceled.
