73 - Spotify raising prices consumers drop streaming apps

Author: David Lara July 11, 2024 Duration: 11:45
And today’s world we have to deal with a lot of inflation. Streaming services are getting completely brazen into the point of asking consumers to pay more for the same service and music that are not worth in my opinionpaying for. The prices of streaming services have risen so much that I am now taken a position of removing all types of streaming servicesfrom my daily use.

Hosted by David Lara, Minimalist Tech News cuts through the noise of the daily tech cycle. This isn't about chasing every gadget launch or spec sheet. Instead, the podcast focuses on how we can engage with technology more intentionally, stripping away the unnecessary complexity and anxiety that often comes with it. You'll hear discussions about practical ways to simplify your digital setup, protect your personal data, and make sense of the larger shifts in software and services without feeling overwhelmed. Each episode aims to unpack a single idea, whether it's the real cost of a subscription model, the implications of a new privacy policy, or a clearer way to understand a trending tech concept. The goal is to provide a grounded, thoughtful perspective that helps you decide what tools and services actually serve your life, rather than the other way around. Tune in for a calm, considered conversation that treats tech not as an endless stream of news, but as a landscape to navigate with clarity and purpose.
