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

    • Zen Browser 1.21.4b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21.4b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 152.0.2 and 152.0.3 Added 'Edit pinned tab' context menu item to manually set a pinned tab's URL Added 'Add Route for Domain' context menu item to quickly add a tab's domain to the Space Routing settings Fixes Prevent sidebar from flickering when moving a tab (#14131) Full-screening while on a glance tab will now expand the glance tab to a normal tab (#11766) Fixed space routing tabs opening in background when it should be in foreground (#14183) Other minor bug fixes and improvements.

    • I was using searxng for about a year , self hosted, but results were starting to timeout and eventually it became unusable so I switched to degoog. Much better for my needs, more polished and add-ons like maps and calculations etc

    • Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
