Hello, Spotify is not new service. It's a music streaming service, and it has been available in the UK for 2 years or so. It is a piece of software that you can download and use to listen to music on. It was only recently launched in the US, and that is because the record companies were wary of the legal implication. The free service only allows you to liven to the same track 5 times, and I believe only allows you to be on there a certain amount of time per month. There are two subscription services, the only difference between the two is that with premium you can listen to an unlimited number of tracks and make offline playlists, whereas with limited you can only stream tracks. I have been using it for some time and it is accessible to a degree. If you want to search for a song, you have to go into the edit box and type in what you want. After pressing enter, you need to shift tab and the screen reader will not speak. You need to press the context menu key and press down arrow to play and then enter. The song will begin playing and it will come up in the title bar and if you use the read line command. When you use your arrow keys, your screen reader will not be able to read the list. I have written to them about this issue, but they sent what looked like an automatic email response to me. I hope this helps.
