does anyone pay for premium via paypal? They cant do re-ocurring charges via that can they? I might try it for a month but I dont wanna do it via CC incase i forget to cancel it.
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 27 April 2010 15:53 (fourteen years ago) link
ok i signed up, looks like it does charge you each month, didn't think they could do that with paypal, so im not too happy with that but I'm gonna give it a go, esp useful with all these listening clubs. Maybe I'll use Spotify more now I'm paying for it but i cant see me subscribing every month unless i do use it a lot.

Didn't realise they update the player, I'm still on 0.3.23 by the looks of it.

This new version layout somehow reminds me of Napster. If only there was a way to chat to people on your friends list...

Are the proxy settings as easy to tweak for us North Americans as they are on the older version?

Getting this for iPhone has been the best thing I ever did...
― I see what this is (Local Garda), Thursday, 29 April 2010 07:02 (fourteen years ago) link
Me too...How much do you use it during the day on 3g? It hoovers up data - and I wonder in the long-term if the phone companies will act to limit it.
― Bob Six, Thursday, 29 April 2010 07:26 (fourteen years ago) link
Xpost: on iPhone it let's you download and store music on your phone! So you can play offline
― De que estas hablando? (Tannenbaum Schmidt), Thursday, 29 April 2010 07:43 (fourteen years ago) link
Anyone know when the new version will be available for mac?
― p-dog, Thursday, 29 April 2010 09:04 (fourteen years ago) link
I downloaded it from spotify's site yesterday evening. It looks good - though I haven't tried the link to facebook yet.
I was quite impressed with how quickly it built the new 'library' - and it found more tracks than I have in iTunes.
― Bob Six, Thursday, 29 April 2010 09:19 (fourteen years ago) link
Most of my Spotify iPhone plays are in offline mode - I set the playlists up to download overnight, while I'm plugged into the mains on my home wi-fi. That said, the 3G signal in the office is super-strong, so it rarely pauses while streaming online.
The new Windows version hasn't rolled out to me yet - the site says they're phasing it in - and I am getting VERY IMPATIENT.
― mike t-diva, Thursday, 29 April 2010 09:54 (fourteen years ago) link
mike, you can download the new version; the update doesn't mess with any existing playlists or settings

It tried to roll out the new version to me after I already downloaded it myself, resulting in something fucking up and me having to do it all again. Really happy with it but I'm still a bit wary about it mining my libraries - I'm not a serial advance copy downlooter but I imagine if I was I'd be concerned about installing a product that allows major record labels to browse my computer for albums they haven't released yet.
― broad layering (onimo), Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:14 (fourteen years ago) link
Don't make those playlists public, then! Pretty sure it doesn't let them see details of your library otherwise.
― stet, Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:21 (fourteen years ago) link
How much information does Spotify store about my local files and what do you do with them?We collect data on the files you import and play for top list purposes, statistics and to link tracks to our database for better sharing. As we state in our privacy policy, we won’t share an individuals information regarding imported files to 3rd parties.
From the blog, although obviously it depends how far you believe that's likely, and what exactly it means.
How did it fuck up onimo? I did the same, and it's crashed a couple of times, but nothing serious.
Other than that, it's great - always slightly wary of the social aspect of these (misanthropy/integration of everything fear) but the assimilation of itunes stuff is great, as the fact you can sync both local and spotify files to iphone playlists. Once the new iphone gets third party apps running the background - KABOOOM, I have leveled up.

Ooh, so does this mean I'll be able to use Spotify as my MP3 player, without having to open bloaty old iTunes?

Yep, on computer it's great, because the whole search/linking thing is so much better than itunes, tho not sure about relative amount of space taken up per song on iPhone, and obviously that whole not being able to run spotify in the background is a drag, until the iPhone 4.
Point taken about third parties onimo.
― Remember me, but o! forget my feet (GamalielRatsey), Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:40 (fourteen years ago) link
The labels only have a 17% stake; they definitely count as third parties. Spotify giving them data on who has prereleases would just be suicide, too. I'd be relaxed about it.
― stet, Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:47 (fourteen years ago) link
I thought you were generally more twitchy than most about data mining, particularly when Facebook gets involved.
― broad layering (onimo), Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:48 (fourteen years ago) link
Sony, Universal and Warner have 8% each, according to

oh wait I'm wrong - they're using commas and decimal points :/
― broad layering (onimo), Thursday, 29 April 2010 11:53 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah I am, I guess trust matters a lot here: I trust Ek and a bunch of Swedes way more than Zuckerberg or CBS. Even at that last.fm has been packed with leaked stuff for years and nothing happens.
It's not actually illegal to listen to or possess this stuff, anyway: only to duplicate or distribute it. (Someone else can be the test case on how you get it on your machine without duplication tho ...)Xp

don't think labels are really bothered about what files are on people's PCs only whether they've "uploaded" them
