Ask HN: What vendor you'd switch out if a better option was available? We all pay for things. Either personal (like Spotify) or at your company (Slack). Out of those, which one would you swap if a better thing was available? |

spotify for sure, working on that
kinda anything. why wouldn't i switch if there's something better?
i have that kind of brand loyalty with local small shops maybe, where there's a relationship. but not corporate online brands.
I wish there was an alternative to Carbonite (unlimited storage, my encryption) that doesn't hide the VAT until the checkout so they don't trick on the pricing (for us Europeans)
