Good morning,
It would be impossible for Spotify’s $4.99 premium plan for college students to get any better, right?
Apparently not.
The streaming company announced Wednesday that Spotify Premium for Students now includes a subscription to Showtime.
College students now have access to three separate streaming services — Spotify Premium, Hulu’s limited commercial plan and a Showtime subscription — for about $5 a month.
For users who aren’t enrolled in college, the combined bill of those services is nearly $30 a month.
In other words, enjoy the deal while you still can.
