One of my earliest memories of buying music was a trip to my local HMV during school lunch break to purchase multiple copies of (What's the Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis. It was 1995 and my friends and I were teenagers in the grip of the Britpop era, so everyone wanted a copy. I carried a not-inconsiderable amount of cash into the shop, which I eagerly exchanged for a pile of CDs, each of which likely cost around £12.
Fast forward almost 30 years – yikes – and that’s exactly what you’ll pay for a month of Spotify Premium, giving you access to all the music ever made, give or take, as well as that seminal second album from Liam and Noel. Spotify recently announced its US subscription prices would be rising again, the Premium tier going up to $11.99, the second rise in 12 months. In the UK, you will pay £11.99 if you sign up today.
