Spotify Still MIA
Spotify is a giant music library in which the user can listen to their favorite music and download it from around 10 million options. They have reported that they are now up to one million subscribers as well as over ten million active users. However, despite this large number of clients, their problem with availability is still their most prominent issue, since their services are still unavailable in the US! Currently Spotify is only available within selected European countries, but hopefully soon enough we Americans will have our chance to experience it.

Although Spotify is still unavailable in the United States, I am hoping to use this tool. I read on their website that they are still dealing with licensing agreements with record labels. I signed up for the newsletter, so that I could be notified when it becomes available in the US.
ReplyDeleteYou could always use grooveshark. That's what I do when pandora is down or I ran out of hours for the month. It has a lot of songs to choose from, even user created stations. I just don't have the time to build a "perfect" play list so I play the basic overarching genre lists.
