r/truespotify on Reddit: Basic plan vs premium individual
June 23, 2024 -

For people that are wondering about the new plan and the cryptic "basic individual" that's not marked as premium — you still keep all the basic features of your basic music plan. The literal difference is that there's no access to audiobooks. Once I secured the basic, it showed all the features: save music, listen in any order, etc.

Difference between Basic and Premium Individual
December 18, 2024 - Unfortunately, it’s expected that you’re unable to switch to Basic Individual, as you aren’t currently subscribed to a recurring Premium plan (Basic plans aren’t available while on prepaid plans), and also because you’re now on the free plan (Basic plans are only offered as a downgrade option, so you can't upgrade from free to Basic Individual). Note as well that the Basic offer is only available for Spotify users who were subscribed to a recurring Premium plan before the beginning of the Basic campaign; so even if you start a recurring Premium subscription now, you still won't see the option to downgrade to Basic Individual.
