DJP, i am enjoying ur playlist v much.
I have also discovered that I have a whopping 12 invitations going spare.
― Upt0eleven, Friday, 15 July 2011 15:38 (twelve years ago) link
E-mailed you, sonderangerbot.
― jaymc, Friday, 15 July 2011 15:39 (twelve years ago) link
Thanks for the invitation, I am now listening to the 50s playlist.

Cool, thanking u, sonderangerbot!

Is 'All Eternals Deck' available in the US as it's not in the UK?
― The multi-talented F.R. David (Billy Dods), Friday, 15 July 2011 15:49 (twelve years ago) link
It is! That is very sad it's not available in the UK ;_;
― Spotify, Spotify me (DJP), Friday, 15 July 2011 15:50 (twelve years ago) link
Strange, because several other MG albums are available including 'LOTWTC'. Will have to get JD's people to speak to our people.

If you're okay with signing up for a third-party thing (which you can immediately UN sign up for), you can get a free code: http://klout.com/perk/Spotify/SpotifyFreeAccounts

It's saying the next song will play after a commercial message, but there is no commercial message. Some kinks to deal with here.
― _Rudipherous_, Friday, 15 July 2011 15:55 (twelve years ago) link
Thanx a million, sonderangerbot!
― jaymc, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:05 (twelve years ago) link
Thanks to DJP's playlist, I've now heard ICP for the first time.
― Josef K-Doe (WmC), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:07 (twelve years ago) link
Oh crazy, this is importing all of my iTunes files.
― jaymc, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
Is thanks really the right word?
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
Maybe not...
― Josef K-Doe (WmC), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:11 (twelve years ago) link
Mil gracias?

The absence of Sub Pop releases on this is bugging me. Rdio has Sup Pop, but is missing other things that (for me) are major gaps. Mog and Rhapsody seemed to have decent libraries (maybe not quite as expansive) but I found the user experience to be quite painful. Basically, I'd be willing to give somebody money for the ability to consume music this way on an ongoing basis, but no one has quite hit the mark.
― fffv, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:13 (twelve years ago) link
And no web app whatsoever on Spotify makes no sense to me.
― fffv, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:14 (twelve years ago) link
lol I was wondering how ppl would react to that song
― Spotify, Spotify me (DJP), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:17 (twelve years ago) link
Oh man, which ICP song?

"Hey Vato" off of one of the Forgotten Freshness comps
In retrospect, I should have picked a Ringmaster track but hey

can someone explain the point of the iphone app if you don't have the premium subscription? i synced some playlists but when i try and click them it says that it's for premium members only
― ILX Point Never (diamonddave85), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:28 (twelve years ago) link
Better than saying it's for Closers.
― Mark G, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:29 (twelve years ago) link
there is no point to the iPhone app if you don't have the premium subscription
― Spotify, Spotify me (DJP), Friday, 15 July 2011 16:34 (twelve years ago) link
but the point of the premium subscription is the iphone app. do it. (i have been labouring this but point but i love them do not work for them just fyi)
― Upt0eleven, Friday, 15 July 2011 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
mookie &,jon, sent invites your way. don't blame me when you end up listening to ICP.
― sonderangerbot, Friday, 15 July 2011 18:29 (twelve years ago) link
it only imported 18GB out of 100+gb from my itunes library. Is there a limit?
― brotherlovesdub, Friday, 15 July 2011 18:40 (twelve years ago) link
thanks sonderangerbot! i actually only signed up to listen to ppl's playlists, so i guess i've got ICP coming
― mookieproof, Friday, 15 July 2011 18:59 (twelve years ago) link
I didn't put any ICP on this one... YET

anyone else besides sonderangerbot got invites? (don't want to bog him down with too many requests)
― dayo, Friday, 15 July 2011 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
This Spotify invites thing is so 2009.
― Hongroe (Geir Hongro), Friday, 15 July 2011 19:16 (twelve years ago) link
ø snap
― mookieproof, Friday, 15 July 2011 19:18 (twelve years ago) link
Seems to me the invites thing is about as much creating a buzz as managing the take up by new users.
― The multi-talented F.R. David (Billy Dods), Friday, 15 July 2011 19:20 (twelve years ago) link
Got one dayo if you want. DM if you still need one. Got a few in fact, if anyone else wants one.
― Fizzles the Chimp (GamalielRatsey), Friday, 15 July 2011 19:35 (twelve years ago) link
There's a Spotify playlist for the ilx all-time jazz albums nominations.
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Friday, 15 July 2011 20:26 (twelve years ago) link
It doesn't look like Spotify will be sending out free ones anytime soon, I see now on their website that you can start "winning" invites next week.
Thanks for the invite sonderangerbot!

thanks gamaliel!

i'm a free rider only in it for ppl's playlists
and the ads they insert after every few tracks are alarming/hilarious
― mookieproof, Saturday, 16 July 2011 00:39 (twelve years ago) link
I'm in. Wow, this really does look fantastic for basic research and taste development! They've got that Country Mice album I was curious about.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Saturday, 16 July 2011 00:50 (twelve years ago) link
Thanks for the Spotify invite, GamalielRatsey. (I assume it was you that sent me the invite.) Played with it a little bit so far. A lot to explore here.

anyone having this problem where you'll double click on a song to play and it just sits there? skipping to the next track usually works, but dammit i wanna hear that song!!
― ILX Point Never (diamonddave85), Saturday, 16 July 2011 17:36 (twelve years ago) link
from what i gather it lets you do an (hopefully ota) sync of your own music that youve added to the desktop player but not access spotify library. this would be a cool enough feature actually but i haven't tried it. been waiting for mediamonkey to come up with wireless sync option for awhile, most of the android apps that do it only work with itunes.
having fun imagining frank grimes style meltdowns at rhapsody headquarters right now. this is so unfarrrr!!!

Is there a plug in or something that will produce a radio station like Pandora?
― calstars, Sunday, 17 July 2011 01:01 (twelve years ago) link
decided to put my emusic account on hold and try the $5 version of this. i feel bad because for years i was like "rhapsody? what a terrible idea" but now the idea of non-committal browsing seems great.
