I am really considering buying SPOTIFY Premium. I have an IPHONE 3GS which I could use it on, and I'm using it whole the time. But I do not know if it is worth the money..

So I would love some feedback from TL! Thanks

Well if you have a limit on how much bandwidth you can download, you probably shouldn't be streaming music "the whole time."

I have an iPhone 4, and I use it all the time as well, but I just hunt the music online and download them and then add them to the iPhone instead of paying extra for a streaming service that uses up my limited bandwidth.

I stick to the free spotify on my computer, music for public transport journeys is generally easy enough to put on the ipod.

I'd consider getting it if they had anything other than radio hit music in their library.

Which they don't.

They have quite a lot of music there, and not just hit music.

I'm using it and it is awesome. You can download music if you have premium and you don't have to stay online. It is great for my iPod as I don't have to use the piece of shit that is iTunes and can very easily change my music. It is so easy to keep playlists, share music with my friends and everything.

Spotify Premium is my best purchase ever. So amazing.

And whoever said that Spotify only has radio hit music is very much wrong. I even have RL friends who have their music on Spotify rofl.

I'm using Grooveshark.com (with a "VIP" account) instead. Love it. And it's only $3/month.

Last time i used it, it wasn't that smooth to use. Dunno how it is now, but i'm sure the usability in Spotify is much better than Grooveshark. Tho 3$ is nice for a vip/premium.

I've tried both and the only thing I like more about Spotify is that he's quite a bit lighter. GS's UI is extremely well thought out and the Desktop version is being updated like all the time, making it so easy and efficient to use.

One of the things I like most is being able to copy a song link to the clipboard and send it to just anyone and they'll be able to hear it throughout the free (browser-based) version. You can't do that with Spotify (person will need to install Spotify first).

Also its "find similar songs" algorithm is a lot more accurate to me (I don't even remember if Spotify has something like that actually.)

I have it and love it. There are so many moments when you're at the bus stop and you just want to hear a certain song, and bam, it's there in great quality. Not enough SNSD though!

Personally using Spotify Premium at 29 SEK / month (Thanks Telia!)
for better or worse it has replaced most of my EBM library now,
and I love having it with me on the iPhone.

It's always stable, as long as my 3G is stable (Hellu Sweden, these open fields could use A TOWER)

But then again - Spotify Premium comes with the option to just download all the music, so it's alright.

All in all I'm very satisfied with Spotify. Haven't ever tried GrooveShark tho'.
FUMP!

Definitely worth the money, although I'm using free. Will probably pickup premium again next month or so. I find all the music I need, mostly metal. Paying a few bucks every month to listen "legally" is damn worth it.
