Step-away-from-the-ledge OT: Sell me Spotify

[1msucub]

Maybe this will give a few of us a reprieve from yesterday's display.
Do any of y'all have any experience with Spotify? I'm incredibly behind the times on the music-streaming front except for the fact that I loathe iTunes with the fire of 10 Hells. It sounds legit, with access to virtually any song at any time from anywhere (if you choose Premium).
Help a brotha out and give me y'all's thoughts.

Only worth it if you're going to use mobile and/or pair with a Sonos type system.

Try the free version

I like it, but the selection is sometimes limited, but still a lot on there. I prefer Pandora typically, since I hear new bands and don't have to decide beforehand what I want to hear.

but overall, it's great. I do hate how now it won't play songs I have in iTunes already, but other than that it's great. Try it free on your computer, if you like it upgrade.

My problem with Pandora lately is...

...that it stalls on me while at work after a couple songs. Really irritating. I agree with you on trying Free Spotify first & Spotify doesn't have any stall issues.

I love it

Pretty much the only way I listen to music around the house now. Very rarely do I look for an album and not be Abel to find it on there. Well worth the ten bucks per month

My problem is I can't un-link a station I made. I combined Black Crowes (awesome rock station) with Mumford and Sons (have found six or seven good bands on that one) but I can't separate them. It says I have, but the Black Crowes and Zeppelin still come on. I've even deleted the whole channel and re-added Mumford solo, no dice. I have no stall issues though, but I get ridiculous bandwidth at work. Like 50GBps. I haven't listened on my phone in a while.
