Spotify has been available in the US for a little bit and it's awesome. You can sign up for an invite on the site or sometimes it lets current users give out invites so someone here can hook you up. I signed up via the site and got an invite the next day.

It's a program for your computer and phone that lets you listen to most of the music that's out there for free and basically as soon as it's released. Every now and then it'll play an ad or two for you, but I've found it to be loads better than Pandora in that way. There's no "skip limit", you can listen to the same track as much as you like, play whole albums, create playlists and more. It also plays the music you have on your computer so you don't have to switch back and forth between iTunes or whatever. And it scrobbles to your last.fm!!

Speaking of playlists, you can share your custom playlists just by right-clicking on them and clicking "copy HTTP link". It's that easy! And since it's so easy, we can make some mixtapes for those of us that have Spotify!!

Share some music you think someone would like, share some music that person makes you think of, share whatever!!
You're all getting Ke$ha for Christmas.

    I've only made one playlist on Spotify and it is 4 hours of 90s music

    It'd be a lot longer but I limited it to one track per artist

    and I haven't updated it since the first day

    Yesterday I even had to pull my own luggage from the bottom of the mountain up to my house because most of the buses only run on the main street.

    how do i know if i have spotify invites

  • faitsfaits a panda eating cake seattleRegistered User regular
    spotify is requiring invites again?

    I signed up a few weeks ago without any kind of invite or anything.

    but I haven't really used it much because I have a pandora subscription and I don't like making playlists very much.

    I don't think free accounts get invites, I opened the player and went on the webpage and don't even see where I would have any.

    vaguely music related, but my car has a 3 month sirius trial, and I've been listening to their 90s on 9 station a lot

    I swear like 60% of their rotation is C&C Music Factory

    I love that station but I hate it because of their commercials that are 90s songs but end up with them singing "90s on 9!!" instead of the actual song and they're always songs I love and then they play something crap instead

    Spotify is pretty rad. Better than Pandora, Grooveshark, or Lastfm.

    Apparently the mobile app requires having a premium subscription, which is balls

  • ScudoScudo Registered User regular
    thanks keith!

    yeah, I wish it had an ad-supported mobile app, but I like to have my playlists in the gym and so I just treat it like a Netflix account

    I was using Pandora for a while on my phone (before moving out of a 2G/3G/4G area) and it was okay but I was definitely getting fed up with the ads. They were constant and always for the same thing. It was usually Living Social which I signed up for from your stupid ad stop telling me about it

    the premium subscription deal is almost good enough to get me to switch from Zune Pass, though

    it's a really neat deal

    also thanks for making this thread, Keith!
