A couple of months ago I decided to subscribe to Spotify Premium, and I've really pleased with the choice.
The have been several things that I've really liked about Premium account over the Free one. The main one is the ability to listen to my playlists offline, which it's really nice since I don't have to use my mobile data if I don't want to and maintain access to my favorite music. For me it's quite a big deal, since I tend to use the app on my smartphone most of the time.
I mainly use the desktop app at home, where I do use the online features to discover new artists and their music. Spotify has been where I have discovered new music the most for a while now, and while I like the mobile app, the desktop app is the one I feel most comfortable in for music discovery.
Another feature I like, and I've come to really a bit on the mobile app, is the ability to choose with what song I want to begin with and then shuffle the rest of the playlist I'm listing to at the time. It might be something of an idiosyncrasy of mine, but it has enhanced my experience.
I never minded the adds that much, but I've found that I don't miss them that much. It has really helped to have less distractions, either from the music or whatever I'm doing at the time.
One of the things that I personally thought I wouldn't notice much, is the how much better the sound quality is when using the high quality streaming option. I've been proven wrong, since I've noticed quite a noticeable difference and I help to enjoy music even more.
Here in Mexico, the subscription goes for $99.00 Pesos a month, that would $5.46 US Dollars. And for me, it has been quite a good deal. Specially since is one that pays the artist for their work.
