Spotify
Today Twitter's worth was revealed to my when Graham Linehan (writer of Father Ted and The IT Crowd) decided to set up a twitter feed where people who had Spotify invites to spare could find people who needed one. To back up Spotify is an amazing music service that isn't available in America, it's essentially a free itunes. You can play thousands and thousands of albums on your computer and create playlists. I can't download the songs onto my ipod, but it's going to be amazing for finding new music and listening to it during the many hours I spend at my computer. But anyways, a kind soul who had a premium spotify account gave me on of their invites so I can get a basic account (meaning there are commercials)! I'm instantly obsessed with it. So, thank you Graham Lineham for being so wonderful to suggest a code exchange! YEY!

As an elite member of the music industry (ahem), i must say something smells legally unsound there. Can you download songs to your computer? Is it like Pandora?
ReplyDeleteSpotify is a completely completely completely legal music system. It's like pandora, but you chose which songs you listen to. I don't download them, I stream them through the spotify server. They pay fees to record companies, which are funded through ads. So in short, it doesn't harm your music label.
