Ondrej Holzman The domestic operator O2 came up with a very interesting offer for its customers. Number two in the Czech market has partnered with the popular music streaming service Spotify and will offer its customers its premium services free of charge. Additionally, streaming music will not count towards your downloaded data. However, it is not always, O2 mainly wants to support the use of data in mobile devices.
All O2 customers who have activated internet on their mobile will get a premium Spotify membership for three months completely free, otherwise it costs six euros per month. After three months, an item for CZK 2 will appear on your invoice from O159 every month, unless you cancel the service or switch to its free version with advertising.
Perhaps even more interesting is the fact that O2 has decided not to count the data downloaded when listening via Spotify to the FUP. In this way, the user saves data and can listen practically unlimitedly, that is, where there is a mobile Internet signal. Owners of selected FREE and Kůl tariffs will be able to use this advantage until 31/5/2018, for other tariffs the offer is valid until 31/5/2017.
With this relatively tempting offer, O2 is trying to get users to use and buy more mobile data, because it is through data services that operators make up for the drop in income from classic SMS and calls.
The Czech operator was inspired, for example, by the American T-Mobile, but unlike it, it offers the exclusion of streaming from FUP permanently and, in addition, it offers many more similar services. Also important is the fact that the offer with Spotify does not apply to business customers, they are not entitled to it.

Great news. Spotify is top notch and it's a great move from O2
The same article is also on Mobilmania and probably elsewhere, so it's more of an advertisement (?). I'm quite a fart on these limited time offers. It can only be interesting if it is not always counted in the FUP.
In general, these services are useless. I have a computer full of music, what would I stream something on... Another disadvantage is the absence of enough bands, records and the absence of at least 3G for streaming. I assume it won't "run" on EDGE.
you can drag music to spotify / apple music, it will be uploaded to the cloud and then you can download / stream it as you like :)
I would welcome an answer in the road, but so be it. Somehow it doesn't mean that there is poop. A lot of the music I want just isn't there. Service about nothing. I can download it from the internet for free and then I can stream it as I like :)
Well, he's not such a hit, when Spotify was now on sale for 3 months for 0.99 Euro. Maybe just the free data.
I'm not going to get pulled over for this. Due to the temporary and limited promotion, I will not be switching carriers.
Great info, I already pay for Spotify, so I saved 500 in 3 months + unlimited streaming, I'm totally surprised what O2 has come up with :)
