    For real. I saw the email that said price increases and thought, great Spotify is at it too. Then I saw it was only a $1 increase and got over it. For me piracy is more about convenience than anything else. For an extra dollar Spotify is still more convenient than downloading, organizing, and storing my own music. If that ever changes I’ll happily go back to it as I’ve already done for most movies and TV shows, but I don’t think this warrants that sort of reaction.

      Yup I feel the same way about music streaming. If I was torrenting music I wouldn’t know 70% of the songs I have in playlists currently. Paying for Apple Music is a no second thought question
