Just out of interest what sort of quality is Napster in and do they really have a good depth of music? I have been amazed that relatively obscure bands like Spirit of the West and Ned's Atomic Dustbin are well catered for on Spotify. Having played with it I would say the radio is not as good as LastFM, it doesn't have the same quality although it does play a lot more stuff by the artist you have selected i.e. SOTW radio played 95% SOTW songs (however they included the Pogues as well which I *hate* ) And yes I do have one beta slot left, if you want it then PM me on here with your e-mail addy and I will send you one. It seems that Spotify welcome "partners" I wonder if they would be accomodating if I wanted to write my own Spotify plugin. I am guessing with Napster that they dont fundamentally want to deal with Logitech so other than my lack of experience of PERL this would be the main thing to othercome. -- mattybain '[image: http://imagegen.last.fm/recenttracks3/recenttracks/MattyBain.gif]' (http://www.last.fm/user/MattyBain/?chartstyle=recenttracks3) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mattybain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53503
