    Spotify anyone??

    Does anyone like Spotify, I'm considering subscribing to it and I'd like to know if it's worth a damn. It seems like a pretty good deal because of the ability to sync all my playlists to my mobile device. I mean, thus far I've downloaded all my music, vids and programs via filesharing programs...but maybe it's time for me to pay a little, lol

    Setup your own server to stream music, and buy some Tshirts and stuff from the artists you like. Money to the companies doesn't support the arts. If you don't want to setup your own server, you could use something like UbuntuOne. In addition to streaming music, you can store other data so it's more generally useful.

      I use Spotify. I like that it doesn't take up any space and all I have to do to get access to my playlists is log in. 10 bucks a month and I always have my music available on my phone.

      They don't have a couple catalogs I would like to add to playlists but I already tightened own that stuff anyway.

        I think my biggest gripe with Spotify is the "optional" facebook integration they do. It was good as they had it when it was only available in Europe and I used it through a proxy. Now, I'll usually just stick to my library and buy whatever new albums I want. I don't care what other people are listening to at two in the morning, and I don't want to post every damn track I play to facebook. I realise that both these features can be easily disabled, but I won't be using Spotify until they institute accounts that are independent of facebook for US users.

          Spotify is the dog's knackers. Anything you want apart from the Eagles and Bob Dylan for some strange reason.
          The music quality is superb.

            The face book side is the only real pisser. I love it and stream all day at home and work. Beats the hell out of Sirius. 3300 downloaded offline high quality songs is a hell of a lot. Phone in the car, Ipod on the stereo, and computer anywhere, all at the same time. Purrfect! Hell you get a month for free for nothing, give it a whirl and see.
            wiki "Popcorn Sutton" a true COOT!

              I love it! For $10 a month I can listen to pretty much any song I want any time. I plug my phone into my car and play the music there, and it's great for long trips because you don't have to load it up with MP3's before heading out. The best thing is it doesn't take any space on your phone. I'd say go for it man it's worth the small price.

              Note; I got in before they started the facebook thing so not sure what that is about. Mine never asks for any facebook shit and I don't even use a facebook account.

                Done...and I disabled the whole Facebook thing, and I've been playing music all day long. I just love how it syncs my playlists with my phone. I can't see a downside right now, well...it would only be better if it were free, lol

                  If Snusify ever gets a dog Spotify would be a great name.
