Spotify - Amazing Legal music App


Question

I came across www.spotify.com a few days ago, and I must say it's amazing! Been using it ever since, and haven't had a need to open itunes at all. Has pretty much every song I search for, and plays instantly with no buffering or problems etc, for a beta its very good. Anyway, it was invite only but today it's gone public so anyone and everyone can sign up. Give it a go, see what you think, i think it's a new revolution in how we will listen to music in the future.

Here's a review: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LQC2eBQ7Lsk

^Hmmm...doesn't seem to be working for me :/ Thanks anyway.

Odd, still gives me the sign up form here as it did before.

Unfortunately, I wasn't given any invites when I signed up otherwise I'd PM you one.

EDIT: Heh, you must have edited just after I posted. Atleast it worked.

Thats ok for the workaround BUT.

They are now finding out that you registered with a proxy :( so you only have 14 days of trial with it.

If anyone could make a program that could launch it with a uk ip, that would be great :D

Thanks,

David.

P.S : For Spotifyr in C:\Users\[username here]\AppData\Local\Spotify\Storage for vista is where it stores the file, under .FILE encoded under .ogg i think :/

I tried it via the proxy and each time i submit to create the account all i get is this

$('languagebutton').style.display = 'none';

var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-5784146-1"); pageTracker._trackPageview();

This app has been even more impressive than I had expected

QFT. It's so FAST!

And I didn't have the "current song stops playing when I search" problem that was mentioned here. The song just kept playing while I searched. (Y) Also, when I left it for a while, it would just play the following songs in the search results, as if the search results were a dynamic playlist of sorts. VERY slick :cool: :yes:

Umm yeah. They patched the proxy -.-

@ zach_

This is also what happened, since you registered through the proxy. I would advise you to run Spotify through a UK proxy (to fool it), if thats possible.

This site is available for me in Canada and lets me play the entire song of my choice

Its kind of like last.fm=no software install

http://www.imeem.com/discover/

imeem is a great option if you want to play songs on the web.

I also like esnips.com and skreemr.com

    • This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!
    • This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.
    • illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
