https://community.pandora.com/t5/Subscriptions/Direct-billed-Pandora-Premium-Price-Increase/m-p/152915#M22424 <P>Im sorry but Im not just gonna accept that generic email. I want to know why the price is being raised?! What has changed besides the year that you deem it necessary to raise the monthly price?&nbsp; Because for about two years now I been noticing many of my personally built playlists that I've put together over the years are missing some of the artists albums/songs that were available before, like the album is listed in the playlist but is now showing as "Unavailable" and you cannot listen to them, I go back to that artists page and look at the albums and now half or more of the artists albums are now unavailable and this is across multiple music genres.<BR /><BR />So my question to&nbsp;<a href="https://community.pandora.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/16">@Pandora</a> is why are you raising prices to subscriptions and at the same time you're removing content? I just noticed more music in my playlists are now unavailable. I have contacted support in the past and I guess its due to licensing but if I have to pay for these increasing subscription costs then why doesn't Pandora pay their bills for rights to stream the music thats been removed?<BR /><BR />I been a Pandora listener/subscriber for almost 15 years I have to say that Im glad Pandora doesn't raise their subscription prices every year for no real reason like Hulu and Netflix both services I no longer use because when I contacted them they had no real explanation as to why there is a price increase both stream the same almost the programming and the same programming available for years; I mean who the hell needs 47 versions of Batman both feature films and animated seriously! When I contacted those services and asked what is the reason for the price increase no one had a real answer; all just have their magic customer prase "We're going to be adding so much more new content" which means in the future so I ask why are you increasing the price now?! Increase it when the upgrades are available, how you gonna charge me for something you haven't done yet???&nbsp; I cant stand how everything is going subscription, next thing we'll see is "Subscription Based Potable Water"<BR /><BR />I think this is the end of the line for me and Pandora; music&nbsp;my religion&nbsp;is so my 24 hour sermons cannot be interrupted. I will be going over Amazon Music it appears to have everything thats been removed from Pandora and I can cancel any time - PEACE<BR /><BR />Farewell Pandora</P> Fri, 26 Apr 2024 17:46:43 GMT SPnoza13 2024-04-26T17:46:43Z
