    Sounds like the Spotify free tier. I was on Google Music for a while on their $10/mo plan, got annoyed enough with it to leave for Spotify.

      Can you elaborate on what was annoying? I used to pay for it up until a few months ago and I thought it was fantastic.

        Streaming in the browser and on my phone would frequently just stop. Sometimes it would stop playing music, then suddenly skip to the next track. When I was on a VPN, it would intermittently stop playing. I haven't had the stops and starts with Spotify. They drove me nuts on Google Music; I tend to listen while I work and it's very distracting for songs to keep stopping and starting.

          Wow, yeah, those are legitimate problems.

          Come to think of it, I did notice some stops from time to time, but it wasn't enough to dampen my experience. I also just never liked Spotify's interface much, but certainly many people prefer it.
