Slacker downgraded to free slacker?

Hopefully an informative post...

When they started to charge the $9.99 connectivity fee, I decided to see if I could live without slacker and tunein from Tesla, and instead use Amazon’s Alexa Auto.

After a full month of use, I definitely prefer Alexa Auto for music and everything else Alexa does. That being said I do still prefer podcasts through the Tesla screen because of the user interface.

Considering it’s a one-off $30 purchase and may mean that you do not need to pay the $10 tesla premium connectivity fee, it may be a better solution for some (not all).

I've found there are better ways to save $9.99/month and I really like the satellite maps so I have no problem paying such a small amount for streaming music and satellite maps. The street maps look rather pedestrian in comparison.

If I still have the full connectivity (2018 Model 3, Red, LR, EAP) can I use my LiveXLive Plus account from the car on my mobile or desktop app? How would I log in. I thought I did this before but I'm not sure what the login would be.
