How to delete/cancel and unsubscribe from Spotify Premium (paid plan). What happens after cancellation?
For those who want to cancel the Spotify paid plan (including the 3-month trial plan) and change to the free plan, or to cancel the account and delete the account from all Spotify plans, cancel the Spotify Premium (paid plan) and delete the account from Spotify Explains two methods of deleting.
Difference between premium (paid plan) and free (free plan)
This time, if you have signed up for a Spotify premium plan but can enjoy it with a free plan, you can cancel your Spotify premium (paid plan), and if you have registered for Spotify but don’t use it so much, you want to unsubscribe. I would like to change to another flat-rate music distribution service.]
If you cancel the paid plan “Spotify Premium”, you will move to the free plan “Spotify Free”. Before canceling the premium, explain the difference from the free plan.
Paid Plan:
| Premium | Free | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | 980 yen/month (100 yen for 3 months immediately after registration) | free |
| Playback method | Can play your favorite songs also possible playback of the order as | Shuffle play only |
| Audio ads | None | Yes |
| Sound quality | The highest sound quality can be selected | You can only choose high sound quality |
| Offline playback | Possible | Impossible |
The major difference between the premiums is
that you can listen to your favorite music in any order as well as shuffle play. There are four points: no restrictions on skipping, no
ads during playback
, listening to “highest sound quality”,
and downloading songs that can be played offline
.
Premium allows you to listen to music by specifying the music more finely and without ads, so you can enjoy music without stress. In addition, you can listen to music without worrying about the communication volume even without a WiFi environment because it has a download function and an offline playback function. Only premium can reproduce high-quality sound. If you want to stick to the sound quality, we recommend that you continue.
