Aside from the number of subscribers and revenue , Spotify drew reaction from users last year for increasing subscription fees. However, various sources expect the company to increase its prices again soon.

This new plan may come with a lower price because it will offer less content. For this reason, it can be preferred by users who do not want to listen to audio books.
