Spotify has introduced a couple of new plans to it’s services. The new plans called Spotify Open and Spotify Unlimited add some in-between plans allowing users to cut down on what they don’t need from the Premium service and also sign up to the free service without an invite.

Next down the list is the regular Spotify Free where you get free access (ad supported) to the services for an unlimited time per month. [Read more…]
