I can tell you why I might give up Rdio for Spotify, depending on how this trial goes.
I have been a Rdio subscriber for about 3 months now, and I really only have two complaints. The first is that when I'm listening to Rdio at work (which is where I use the service most often) the stream tends to hang up and/or "stutter", to the point that I eventually get frustrated and turn it off. Now, we have pretty decent bandwidth at work, and other similar services (e.g. Pandora) don't seem to suffer from this problem, so I'm not sure what Rdio's problem is.
The other problem I've observed with Rdio is that a noticeable amount of time passes between the time I press "play" and the music actually starts. This one's not such a big problem, but it is a problem.
So, I've just signed up for a Spotify Unlimited plan and I'm going to see how it stacks up, especially with regards to the aforementioned problems. If it seems to perform more consistently than Rdio has, I'll probably switch.
