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

Tried it now, though what it said was untrue :p , "Play any song in the world, for free!"

Lol! But it hasn't failed me yet! :laugh:

Can someone give me an invite? I want to check it out. PM me if possible.

So after downloading the app you don't have to use a proxy right?

Couldn't find it, despite being on the Mean Girls soundtrack (don't judge me!)

Spotify is excellent! Starting streaming tunes is as instant as if I was listening to them off my own computer, and the OSX client at least is lovely and minimalistic / uncluttered. Good selection of music too. It's almost perfect... now if only I could save the albums onto my iPod!

*cough*C:/Users/(USERNAMEHERE)\AppData\Local\Spotify

In the folders there are .FILE 's

convert from .ogg (i think)

*COUGH!!!!*

Just tried spotify and there are too many artists I listen to, AC/DC for one, that are not on it, unlike the excellent Grooveshark. All the hype and in my opinion not worth it.

Although it does have potential and could lead to bigger and better things. Good effort though.

Sent you an invite.

"Spotify free is not available in your country". It looks like it is not available in the USA.

I don't believe it is but you can still use it if you can register in the UK. All you need to do is find a UK proxy. www.daveproxy.co.uk used to work but I think Spotify blocks it now.

    • I'm still rocking iOS 25.x on my primary phone cuz iOS 26 still has usability quirks (mostly aesthetic and thus its UX) which I don't wanna deal with -- and I've been piloting them with all of these updates on my backup phone, so I'm well aware of its "improvements" since iOS 26 was first released (compared to version 26.5.x).
