Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
All i have been hearing lately about is this mysterious tracker called spotify.
If any member here is on that tracker and could tell me what exactly they have to offer it would be much appreciated.
It seems like this is the big rage now, if you don't have spotify you have nothing!

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
I like it so far, lots of music to listen to. And nice interface, too.

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
yea when i first installed it i immediately thought of itunes but it is very nice. those of us in the US/canada(not sure about other countries) need a proxy but its an easy workaround and then we can use our normal internet once we register. it buffers and plays flawlessly with no wait at all for me and they have a huge library of songs. as long as they can do it while staying away from too many ads and not forcing people to pay for it, it should work very nicely.

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
well, it looks nice and cool and everything, there are all of the songs you would wish to listen to, but at the end, the quality of the songs is what i miss most.

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?

i'm gonna give up winamp for good
this place has almost all the music i want

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?

i don't know why but it's working pretty slow for me, not the songs but the loading of the songs. also it is always stuck every 10 seconds ( more or less ) and starts loading the rest of the song.

Maybe it's your cache size.
Click CTRL + P and raise it ;)

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
Just find out this from another site: 8 allowed countries Sweden, Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Finland and Norway

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
Any particular web proxy site that will allow people not from those 8 coutries to get on to the site?

By proxy of course :shifty:
-
Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
Use something like 2proxy.info
-
Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
You can just tell someone to sign you up and then you can connect from any IP.
-
Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
Or you can just use a webproxy to sign up, then connect like normal after sign up, as stated already in this thread a few times...

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
I see my folder for cache just gets bigger and bigger. Can I delete these folders without something wrong happens?
-
Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
Click Ctrl+P to bring up the preferences then select how much cache you wish to use :)

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
So how is the quality of the songs? Most people seem to be satisfied, but I read a post elsewhere saying a person heard clipping or whatever on a few songs.
ogg q5 is used so if there are any problems, it's probably the source material.
btw

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
I have 5 invites left which I 'd like to share here. Am I supposed to do that in the free invite section? It ain't a tracker...
-
Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
No please don't do that sylar. You can give them away here. I hate to see requests and GA for spotify in that section.

Re: Spotify - Is it all its cracked up to be?
I have some invites i would like to share too, unfortunately i cant send or receive pm's :(
