In their own words
Deezer
Deezer is a music streaming service from a company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Paris, France. Its free plan costs nothing and provides ad-supported streaming with access to over 120 million songs. Deezer also lists a 30-day trial. The service supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, with offline listening and lossless audio available. Paid plan entries are organized by account count: Premium and Premium Annual cover one account, Duo and Duo Annual cover two, and Family and Family Annual cover six. A Student plan is also listed. Deezer is therefore presented as a freemium service with free listening and several account-based paid options. Listeners can use it across browsers, computers, and mobile devices, and can choose plans that match individual, student, two-account, or six-account use.
