Spotify entered the online streaming scene with features that shattered the competition. Coupled with the interesting UI and a competitive monthly subscription, Spotify quickly gathered millions of users to become the leading music streaming platform on the planet.
You can get by on the free version of Spotify but to unlock all the features of the service then you need the Premium version. The world is your oyster in terms of content, as the Spotify library is probably the largest in the world.
Why should you use Spotify Premium?
High quality. You don’t have to be an avid music lover to appreciate good sound quality and to expect it from an online streaming service. Even in the case of videos, audio quality is the most important. Spotify gets you a 96 kbps bit rate on the free version and a massive 320 kbps on the Premium version.
No ads. If you’re currently interested in Spotify then you’re probably coming from Youtube, which is a great platform but it is not optimized for music. Who wants to look at multiple ads for a 3 to 5-minute song? There are no sort of ads on Spotify Premium.
Unlimited Downloads. You can stream music online with Spotify Premium but you can also download tracks to your device. Download as many as your device can handle as there is no limit to the service.
Offline Mode. As previously mentioned, you can download as many tracks as you want to your device. The main purpose of doing so would be to listen to music offline. You probably want to save battery or you don’t have good signal everywhere you go.
Unlimited Skips. Spotify is usually enjoyed one playlist at a time. Users create their own over time but the service generates playlists based on user preferences. Skip as many tracks you want in these playlists with Spotify Premium.
