Grooveshark is pretty shady. They have music on there that only exists in the p2p market, like fake compilations of b-sides. Spotify may not pay a lot, but atleast they have negotiated with the labels on playing their music.

As long as I'm not capable of using Spotify (facebook requirement) it might as well not exist.

I'm actually paying for a $9/month grooveshark account that lets me use their android app. I wouldn't have any trouble paying 10€/month for spotify but they're not even letting me in.

It seems Denmark will follow the German example. An investigation against Grooveshark and their potential infringement is being started from "rettighedsalliancen" and the police has forced the telephone operator 3 to DNS-block the use of Grooveshark.com during the investigation.

Seems like it is first step towards placing it on the same national list as thepiratebay.com where all ISPs are forced to block it. The crazy thing about it is that it will still be 100 % legal to use the site through a proxy!
Repeat before me

Is it just me or is grooveshark not working anymore? Just stopped working in the past few hours for me.
Don't forget to get everyone you know to play HOTS so this game we love called Starcraft will live on. Every little bit helps. ^^

Uh oh! The site is temporarily down due to some network issues, but we'll have it back up ASAP. Terribly sorry for the disruption.

Something seems fishy about this.. $4 per month is ALOT to ask for "operating costs" considering their popularity.. I dont know how much in royalties grooveshark actually paid, but this could certainly have been due to a crackdown on copyright laws, the question is, why would grooveshark lie?

Canadian (West coat) here, grooveshark is simply unable to be connected to over here.
im so sad i literally listened to grooveshark like 5-9 hours a day ;_;

EDIT: my guess is that they cracked down on grooveshark and ordered them to shut down immediately. In a last ditch effort to rake in some money they threw up the "please pay us" thing. They then shut the site down after making some hard cash from people who paid right away, took the money and ran.

STOP USING GROOVESHARK IT HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER BY GOVERNMENT. ANYONE WHO USES THE SITE WILL BE RECORDED AND FLAGGED FOR "Piracy Watch" FOR THE NEXT 6 MONTHS.
THEY ARE WATCHING YOUR DOWNLOADS AND ANYTHING ABOVE 256mb A DAY WILL AUTOMATICALLY PING AN INVESTIGATION INTO YOUR PAST/CURRENT/FUTURE DOWNLOADS.
