I already cancelled. Am not gonna pay 20 euros for just 2 persons who both listen 1 hour daily at most.Another known streaming service has a cheaper duo subscription.
In this second price increase (because let's face it, forcing the HiFi option unto all family subscriptions was just that), you write: > while ensuring artists receive fair compensation for their work. That is a bold faced lie given you still haven't implemented a fair compensation policy where artists I listen to actually get a chunk of my subscription fee instead of sending most of it to overhyped, overpaid artists who I don't listen to (and quite a few of them I'd actively like to avoid funding). Video streaming platforms are increasingly expensive because there are so many you'd have to subscribe to, you're just plain expensive on your own. I've already canceled my subscription, and I'm highly unlikely to pay one again. So long Geezer. Yes, made me laugh, too, a fair compensation for artists… stopped my family subscription, too. Looking for an alternative.From Forbes October 2021:“Streaming service Deezer has broken a pledge made only months ago not to put up its prices.The c
Be VERY attentive: Deezer let me know about the price increase LESS than 24 hours before the subscription renewal. This is scandalous, at least let your clients know a month before.And then, when you want to cancel the subscription, Deezer offer a ridiculous 3 months with the old price, but they locate and color the buttons differently, so that if you do not pay attention, you are stuck with them for another 3 months.Has been a long time that I have seen such a scandalous behaviour.
I was happy with Deezer when I started it years ago. I liked the Flow, it was always playing new songs that I liked. Now it often repeats the same pattern, playing the same songs. It has become so predictable and boring.My husband who uses “random” with his favorites, says something similar.The layout of Deezer was good years ago, but now has become way too crowded in my opinion.For 20 euro’s a month I can also start buying CD’s like in “the good old times”. Sure, less choice (after all you cannot buy anything you want), but Deezer now costs about 2400 euros for 10 years. One can buy a nice collection for all that money and the best thing: That music will be yours forever. It won’t be gone when you stop the subscription.That’s also why I don’t stream movies anymore: The movies and series I buy will always be mine and they won’t disappear before I have watched them.
For me it was 14,99 euros till March 2022. Then it was suddenly increased to 17,99, and now 19,99. That is almost a 25% increase in a very short time. Much more than the inflation rate anyway. And my husband and I listen at most an hour a day. So this price is really becoming ridiculous for the two of us, even if we can pay it.
Same here in The Netherlands, my partner and I listen little and though I can pay it, I refuse price hikes and paying for others. Why don’t they have accounts for two people?
We are a two person family listening little and are again confronted with a price hike. Why should a two-person family pay as much as a 4 four person family and endure the same price hikes?I understand a streaming service cannot be for free but these prices are becoming ridiculous.I don’t have a Netflix subscription but I looked at their prices and they are considerably cheaper. And they are a TV streaming service.I guess you will lose a lot of subscriptions. I can pay for the subscription but I refuse too pay always more. Imagine all those people who don’t have the money anymore after those ridiculously expensive winters with high energy costs.
I can hear the difference of HIFI with my Sony LDAC headphone on Android. But the thing is, I can’t hear it with my HIFI headphones connected to a DAC on my computer. And this is because Deezer unlike Tidal doesn’t give us the option to direct the stream directly to a DAC.The difference between 320 kb/s and CD-quality (Deezers HIFI) is very little anyway. Lots of people even can’t hear the difference. Either because they don’t have the right equipment or they simply cannot hear it.Deezer’s move to HIFI is mostly a marketing thing. Not so much an improvement of quality.Music quality is not only about size file: I have heard music at lower bitrates that sounded better than Deezer’s higher bitrates.I am not yet willing to give up my subscription because I like Deezer’s Flow, but if they add a couple of euros more or if I will get bored with the flow, I am definitely gone.You can’t raise a subscription that much just based on “quality improvement” that is not or hardly perceptible for mass
