Of course when I was traveling and didn&amp;#x27;t have a data plan.
Canceled my premium subscription a month ago or so. This happened multiple times to me.&lt;p&gt;Yup I&amp;#x27;m at the point again where maintaining my own library is more convinient again.
It&amp;#x27;s exactly the DRM shit I won&amp;#x27;t put up with.
Also spotify, rdio etc. Are &lt;i&gt;exactly&lt;/i&gt; the same price with the same restrictions per plan (in .ch at least). Price cartel, oligopoly?</text></comment>
