Learn about Spotify
Spotify Technology S.A or Spotify, is a Swedish streaming service for digital music, videos and podcasts. Spotify has a library of more than 70 million songs and podcasts that allow its users to listen to any content of their choice at any time, thanks to their licensing deals with major corporations like Sony Music, Warner Music Group and Universal Music Group.
A bit more on Spotify
Founded by Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzo in 2006 and
launched in 2008, Spotify is one of the largest and most popular music
streaming service in the world, with more than 345 million monthly active users
and over 155 million paying subscribers.
On Spotify, users will have instant access to an
unlimited library where they will find a large variety of artists and genres
that can go from movie soundtracks to classical music, from the top 40 pop
songs to rock ones. Its algorithm will recommend songs based on the users’
listening activity, curated playlist, titles of their playlists and even their
favorite artists.
Let’s discuss Free Spotify
Spotify members can use the service completely free of
charge if they want to. This means that not only listening to music is free and
users have access to the entire Spotify library, but also that they get
unlimited access to its catalog of music, videos and podcasts.
Free users can add a playlist curated by the Spotify
staff, a playlist created by other users and even created by an artist; they
can also create albums and share this with friends and other users.
One limitation is that Free users do not get unlimited
skips, like on the Premium version, and they do not get to pick the order in
which songs are played. However, free members can also select songs for
playback with unlimited skips if they are listening from one of Spotify’s
curated playlists that are under “Made for You” on the Home page.
Now, Spotify Premium
The Spotify Premium service has a lot of features, for
one, it not only allows users to download an unlimited number of songs to
listen to offline, but also choose the order of the songs – which users do not
get to do on the free version. This is very convenient, for example, when users
on long flights are traveling to a place where it is difficult to access the
internet.
Another cool feature is that the subscription plan
gets rid of all the ads from the app, which is a disadvantage of Free Spotify,
where very often the ads interrupt playback.
Another perk of the paid membership is that it gives
its users access to music in a high-quality mode that makes it sharper and
clearer, upgrading to 320kbit/s. Plus, with Spotify Premium, users get Spotify
Connect. This feature essentially allows users to listen to music on one device
and control it on another device, even switch back and forth between the
devices.
Want to set up an account?
To sign up to Spotify, all you need is an email
address, a phone number or a Facebook account and find your friends and follow
them on Spotify – they can even share their recommendations with you.
You can create an account on its website Spotify.com,
download and install the Spotify Music app on your Windows 10 device or Mac OS
computer, or even your Xbox One or PlayStation 4 console. Plus, you can
download the app on your phone in the App Store for iOS and the Google Play
Store for Android devices.
After signing up, you will be presented with two
options, Spotify Free or Spotify Premium. New members can try Spotify Premium
for a month for free and enjoy all the benefits and perks that are not
available on the free version. Then, you can decide if you prefer the free or
paid version!
How much does subscriptions cost?
Spotify offers Spotify Premium, a family plan and a
student rate of one free month for new users.
- The three payment plans for members are:
- The
Individual plan for $9.99 per month.
- The
Student Subscription for $4.99 per month, which is half the price of the
Individual plan.
- The Family
Plan for $14.99 per month, which allows families to get up to 6 premium
accounts.
Non-VoIP numbers
An alternative way to create an account is with a
phone number, and because there are a lot of risks of sharing – intentionally
or unintentionally – personal information online, there is a way of bypassing
account verification for your Spotify account.
Non-VoIP
numbers are real USA phone numbers that will allow you to bypass phone
verification. VerifyWithSMS offers you, for one, the best Non-VoIP
service, and two, a way to protect your privacy online. This service is
operated by the Epsilon Technology LTD company, and it will allow you to
receive a virtual SMS over the internet and verify your Spotify account, or
any account for that matter.
Without a doubt this service is simple, fast and
reliable. Enjoy your favorite podcast, song and artist knowing all of your
credentials are safe and sound.
