Spotify gives away Google Home Minis to US family plan subscribers

Spotify has a treat in store for Premium for Family subscribers in the US: you can claim a free Google Home Mini. The offer will be available for current and new master account holders starting Thursday, and you have until the end of the year to register for the smart speaker. Those on the $15/month plan can share their Spotify subscriptions among six family members, who can use Premium on their own accounts. With the Voice Match feature, Home Mini can recognize who's speaking and personalize music playback for them. It should snag Spotify some new subscribers, while Google could get more people hooked on YouTube Music Premium -- Home Mini comes with a three-month trial of that service.
