Pandora Launches Unlimited Premium Family Plan For $15 Per Month (betanews.com)
Mark Wycislik-Wilson, writing for BetaNews: Looking to better compete with the likes of Apple Music and Spotify, Pandora has launched a new Premium Family package. The new package offers unlimited access to all of Pandora's premium features for up to six people. The price is just $15 per month, but there's a 60-day free trial available so you can try it out for size first. Pandora explains that the new package offers "all of the features of Pandora Premium to up to six unique Pandora accounts simultaneously" and costs $14.99 USD monthly or $164.89 annually. As noted by Phone Arena, there are no limits on the number of tracks that can be streamed, there are no ads, and subscribers are free to download music for offline listening.
I listen to Amazon Prime music and buy what few tracks or albums that really peak my interest. Lot of music today is not memorable and not worth the $15 a month to have access too. I think they should offer a plan with a pre defined limit of devices and tracks per month. That way a person with only a casual listener could justify the monthly costs. After all I only pay $11 a month for Netflix and Prime is only around that same price for all its services. Sorry, $15 a month for just music tracks is a bit much.
