Post by: I_want_an_Omega on 20 February 2014, 12:56:29: Anyone use it?

I'm interested to see how much it costs - nothing obvious on their website?

Thanks

Possibly a free trial? If you can access without interruption then they must have changed their policy.

Post by: turtle-eyed-curt on 23 February 2014, 21:05:23: I have it, the premium streaming service comes free with my vodafone 4G ready contract but I paid for it before that (£9.99 a month), my opinion is if you ingest A LOT of music it is worth the money especially if you take full advantage of the ability to download and store on your device (PC/apple/andriod) for offline listening, the free service is only available on PC.
At £120 a year for 3 years now I do wonder how many iTunes albums I could have bought.
