Spotify – So Hot Right Now

Spotify haven’t been around for all that long but they’ve managed to create quite the stir concerning themselves. What you do with Spotify is simply to install the program and then you’ll have access to millions of songs – for free (with short ads) or for a small monthly fee (no ads). Waiting for the songs to download or buffer won’t be necessary as they will be able to be played instantly. The program is still at a BETA level as well as only available in Europe but this seems to change any day now. And it’s all very legal of course.

Everyone from tech geeks to music lovers all over the world has praised Spotify for their great little product. It’s with this in mind that I’m sorry to say that someone has hacked the program making it possible to save and download the music you’re listening to via Spotify. Hopefully people will see the benefit of not having to store a massive amount of files on their computers and keep on using this great service the legal way. It’s also quite sad to see a solution that everyone – the artists, the record companies and we as listeners/users – can benefit from become hacked and destroyed.

On a happier note can we end with saying that it seems as if you soon will be able to use Spotify via your iPhone, making it even less necessary to download music illegally. Just hope, hope that all US residents will be able to use Spotify soon as well.
