Price of Spotify going up another buck. Didn't they just increase it to $12.99 like a few months ago?

This is probably the last increase I'll tolerate though. I used a cracked premium thingy for about 2 years but then they offered a 3 month free trial and I thought 12 bucks was reasonable enough so I've been paying that for 2 or 3 years now. But then it went up to 13 and songs I like started disappearing. And they started forcing ads and concerts/merch down my throat constantly. Now it's 14 bucks and every time I open the app it's advertising some concert or something at me.

It's at the point where if I hadn't already been using Spotify, I wouldn't consider it as a decent option, but since all my stuff's on there I'll just suck it up. If it goes to 15 bucks I'm out though. I'll export my playlists and ditch it

[END RANT]

Edit: oh and what's annoyed me the most recently is that shuffle seems to have gotten worse. Sure Spotify, I have over 2,000 songs in my playlist, by I'm sure it's totally a coincidence that "shuffle" is choosing the same few songs every time I "shuffle". (Apparently they capped the shuffle at 150 songs to work better on low end devices or something)

Spotify is far and away the worst of all of them, I wish they would die
