      They have an estimated 212 million premium users. That’s an additional 2.5 Billion dollars they’re looking at per year.

      The quality is pretty good and dl speeds are superb if you get it from spotify. Only need a free account and plenty of good apps to assist in getting playlists, podcasts and full discographies.
