Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens and soft media users for 1520111 clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Sept. 6 (Xinhua)-- Spotify has begun a new "test" for some free package users, removing lyrics that users rely on from the free package, and may later use it as a unique feature for Premium users.

According to the feedback from users, the notification bubble in Spotify reads "Spotify Premium users can enjoy the lyrics" with a registration link.

Spotify told The Verge that the feature is just a test and is currently being tested among a limited number of users in both regions. But the company did not specify which two markets, how many users or how long the tests will last.

"at Spotify, we often conduct tests, some of which eventually pave the way for a broader user experience, while others serve only as an important learning process." CJ Stanley, co-head of global communications at Spotify, said, "We have no further information to share at the moment."

It is worth mentioning that Spotify Premium already raised its price in July, raising its subscription fee to $10.99 from $9.99 when it was launched in the United States in 2011 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 80 yuan).

In fact, while Spotify is growing at an all-time high, paid subscriptions are not growing at the same rate, so the company is exploring the possibility of pushing lyrics to paid subscriptions.

In addition, Spotify continues to try to attract a variety of creators, bringing more short videos to the platform, and striving to become what CEO Daniel Ek calls an "audio version of TikTok."
