Spotify even provides a step-by-step guide for users who wish to discontinue their subscription in the iOS app, and start it up again through Spotify directly, thus saving three bucks a month. “In case you didn’t know, the normal Premium price is only $9.99, but Apple charges 30 percent on all payments made through iTunes,” the email reads. “You can get the exact same Spotify for only $9.99/month, and it’s super simple.” The message went out in an email blast Wednesday. If you buy a Spotify subscription through the Spotify iOS app it’ll cost you $13, but only $10 if you buy it at the Spotify website. Actually, this option has existed for a long time, but Spotify is just now trumpeting it as a public shot against Apple.
