Anyone using Spotify?
It seems to have just opened up to everybody; that or I finally got
my invite. So I'm using it as of about 5 minutes ago.
What's your experience?

Why I'm Not Going Near Spotify (and Why You Shouldn't Either)

Comparing Spotify to Netflix:
Simply put: the way we consume music is fundamentally different to
the way we consume movies and TV.
Think about it. It is relatively rare to own a movie or TV series
that you sit through and watch multiple times. Sure, there are some
classics where that's the case, but most people watch a video once
and that's it. Music is not like this. The same songs get listened to
time and time again. We build playlists (custom CDs or even mix
tapes, if you're old enough) around them. It's the very reason most
people don't just listen to the radio
