  Deezer's public API is free for registered apps. There is no per-call fee. Consumer subscriptions
  (Deezer Free, Premium, Family, HiFi, Student) apply to listeners and govern playback rights but are
  independent of API access. Full-track streaming via the API requires the user to be a paid
  subscriber.
notes: API is free; full-track streaming requires user subscription.
