Two of music's most successful brand marketers, Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre, are in the hot seat as label sources grouse that the first 100 days of the duo's subscription streaming service, Beats Music, has been a disappointment and soon will face competition on the mobile platform when Sprint begins bundling Spotify with its "Framily" plans.
Spotify owner Daniel Ek will debut the rival wireless partnership -- a direct challenge to Beat Music's alliance with AT&T -- on April 29, at a time when label sources are expressing concerts, Beats, which launched in January, has yet to catch fire in the streaming community.
Fairly contented with Spotify to be honest.
Ads don't even interrupt much of my listening habits.
But mostly the subscription here for Spotify is only around $3/month.
Good. The Beats brand is trash and they deserve to fail, especially having the arrogance to charge $15 a month when they already scam people with their headphones
