Hi All

I have a spotify subscription and think its great to be honest, the
main pro's for me

- Availability - great range of songs, not sure how it stacks up
against Napster/Rhapsody in terms of million of songs though
- Playlists - This is a killer feature for me, ability to search and
find playlists from other users, you can get any type of playlist for
any situation and cuts out doing a lot of work yourself! For example
one of my favourite playlists is a BBC 6music weekly radio playlist
playlist, updated each week and great for finding new music - this
trumps iTunes, Napster etc. for me
- Offline usage - I use spotify on the go on iphone/HTC phones, cut out
the manual element of maintaining a mp3 collection
- Software - very slick, updates automatically from iphone, HTC phone,
Squeezebox, Linux desktop software, as soon as a choose a playlist on
one devices its automatically on the other

cons

- Not all music is available - recent example is the Arctic Monkeys
album not being on spotify so I just bought the CD without trialling
- Viewing your music isn't comparable to SB, music is organised by
playlists as opposed to artist/album/genre/playlist etc. options you
get in SB server - I think this will get better

I still buy CD's but trial all my new music on spotify first before
only buying the stuff I like

Thats my views, any questions please let me know!

cheers
Ian
