Spotify announces family plans, allows up to five separate accounts

Spotify has announce that it will soon allow multiple accounts under a new family plan, something that will see existing Spotify accounts priced at $9.99, with additional members adding on $5 per user, versus $9.99 for a new subscription.

This means that two users will cost $14.99, three at $19.99 up toi a total of $29.99 per month for five users. The streaming music outfit hasn't said how it will enforce the 'family' part of these plans, and whether it would force them under a single IP address, which would stop a group of friends sharing one single account, at $5 cheaper per month or not.
