Online music service Spotify is halving the amount of free music that users can listen to.

Users of its free service will be limited to 10 hours per month, half the time currently offered and will only be able to listen to tracks five times, from May.

New users will get six months of free content before the changes kick in.

The news has angered fans who accuse the firm of seeking to change its model from free to paid.

This is something denied by Spotify.

Ken Parks, Spotify’s chief content officer told the BBC: “Our chief priority is to keep the free service, which is what has made Spotify so popular.

“We’re a company whose ambition is to offer all the world’s music to everyone which means growing the business and our user base to many times its current size.”

“Everything we do is designed to ensure our users continue to have access to an amazing free experience,” he added.

Last month, the online music service announced that it had one million paying subscribers across Europe.

But the majority of its 6.67m listeners use the free service, which is subsidised by adverts.
So long

Announcing the new plans in its blog the firm said that the changes – which begin on May 1 – would mainly affect heavier users.

Spotify and the record labels are locked in a marriage that neither seems to be enjoying”

“Most of you use Spotify to discover music – on average over 50 new tracks per month, even after a year,” it said.

“For anyone who thinks they might reach these limits, we hope you’ll consider checking out our Unlimited and Premium services.”

Experts have said that Spotify’s long-term profitability depends on users switching to the premium services that remove adverts and allow listeners to use smartphones.

“The economics of ad-supported music services just don’t add up and Spotify can’t survive long-term while it haemorrhages money from its free service,” said Mark Mulligan, an analyst with Forrester Research.

One of the big issues for services such as Spotify is the fees demanded by the music industry – which work out at around 1p per play, according to Mr Mulligan.

“The record labels don’t like having a permanent free service around, it is like sleeping with the enemy.

“But too many people expect music to be free now and if there are no legitimate free services it will drive them back to the illegal sector,” he warned.

The first response on Spotify’s blog read: “So long Spotify. It was nice knowing you. Guess I’ll go back to pirating music again then.”

Looks like Spotify will loose many users over this, and many of them threatening to go back to pirating! There are plenty of comments on the Spotify blog along the lines of this: “Well, that’s it. Too bad that a service who got all their users on being free now tries to force their users to pay.”

However, it seems there may be ulterior forces at work. According to an article in the Independent, pressure from record labels has forced the streaming music service to make the move. Looks like Spotify has ditched the loyal users who have been with them from the start to be able to launch in the USA. Maybe it will back fire on them?

Ironically, I know an array of people (i.e. athletes and regular students) who are currently dealing with the affects of the “crippling process”.  As an All-State athlete, I believe the athletes have been crippled the most in every side of the spectrum. I say this because they are afforded additional privileges that regular students can’t imagine. For example, two star basketball players on academic probation, with F’s in various classes, were allowed to participate in the State Playoffs. These same two players were also allowed to graduate in order to acquire athletic scholarships.

This is an instance where one could not blame the “No Child Left Behind” act, but is the perfect example of when to blame teachers, coaches, and administrators for allowing this ridiculous feat to occur. It is instances like this one that turns “student athletes” into prima donnas and encourages “student athletes” to totally disregard academics to excel in their athletic ventures. It is instances like this one that facilitate a false sense of security that misleads an athlete to believe that he/she will be able to get away with the same stuff in college. It is in instances like this where  the students freedom to fail should be exercised completely.

Sugar containes no nutrional value what-so-ever and yet is placed in the majority of all manufactored food? Why? Because it help preserve our food for longer and it taste nice!

Doctors know that sugar is the cause of diabetes but they don’t differentate between empty sugar calories (cane or beat sugar) to that which contains nutritional value (fruit and veg). It is also known that sugar (the cane and beat variety) destroys our white blood cells!

We need our white blood cells to guard agains infections. It is known that diabetic suffer from infection that they don’t recover from naturally! On top of this we all tend to full ourselves up on empty sugar calories and are not giving our bodies the nutrition it needs to heal – B vitamins mostly. Therefore the combination of the two are causing the vast majority of us to become malnurished with displaying any obvious outward signs of doing so. It is also reported that it is possible to be obese and be malnurished.

It is known that over half of diabetics go on to develop inner ear hearing loss.

I would suggest that several generations of excess sugar eating has slowly been altering the way in which our bodies can digest sugar and we pass this on to our child who then go on to develop less and less tolerence to it, resulting in diabetes, obseity and hearing loss.

Sorry about the delay in continuing my blog, things have just been really hectic. My life seems to be manic at the minute and I just haven’t been able to find the time. Before I can continue, I would like too once again thank you all for your lovely comments. HOWEVER, I am not appreciative of the ‘spamming’ and advertisements being left on my blog. I find this rude and highly inconsiderate- especially advertising ‘weight loss products’ on a blog dedicated to eating disorders. I tell you, what is with people these days? Is anybody else having this problem and/ or know how to slove this?

Anyhow, back to the real reason I am writing… to continue my story.

So the holiday season is upon us and for many of us, tis the season to be missing our loved ones if we’re not with them. Or at least, the ones we love but don’t love us in return. Yep yep, its time to hide our cellphones and close our Facebook accounts!

This merry season can often be a sore spot for those who have been a victim of a failed relationship. So many of us have used the line,

“Remember last year when I was with (fill in name) and for (Christmas/New Year/Boxing day/a hot January weekend) we did this and that? Aaw I miss him so much right now”

Thinking of calling/sms’ing/ Facebook’ing/ emailing him?

DON’T DO IT!

Chances are, doing this will just make you feel worse. Trust me, I’ve done this before and it’s never made me feel any better because 99% of the time the reaction you’re looking for from him will not be the one you’re going to get. If he’s one of the good guys he’ll possibly listen to you talking about memories he’s long ago forgotten and not mention the fact that he’s actually on the verge of popping the big question to this current girlfriend, and if he’s not so nice well then…you can only imagine how much more you’ll be wishing that you hadn’t contacted him!

So ladies trust me, Holiday Binge Calling is a big No-No. Instead, call up a friend and moan to her, and then set up a date to go dancing in really high heels (thank god for this seasons really comfortable yet impossibly high heels!), wearing a gorgeous new over-priced dress. This works, I would swear by it!

Besides, what better way to forget about your past holiday man by dancing up on some new tanned and toned man…?
