Spotify Is Going To Change How We Listen To Music

First off, I thought I had already posted an article about Spotify when I heard about them a month ago from @kevinrose, but I guess I hadn’t. So here is Spotify, and their short video/commercial to explain what they are. Similar to the likes of Grooveshark, Last.fm, and Pandora, Spotify starts with the idea of discovering new and old music that you like. From there it goes very much to the next level. You can set up playlists of songs you like on it’s desktop application, and stream the music to your computer. You can then make playlists collaborative, and share it with friends, so multiple people can add/remove songs from the playlist (after all, one person can only discover so much new music). While already available in Europe, Spotify is currently not available in the US just yet, but is on-track to hopefully launch soon (especially after they just announced the addition of 2 million indie songs). What’s even more exciting is Spotify’s mobile app. A demo for their iPhone app has hit the internet, and it is amazing. Not only does it update instantly with the collobarative playlists, but it has the amazing ability to go “Offline” in which marked playlists would be available to you to listen to whenever you want, even without an available internet connection! Check out the video below. Now we just need Apple to approve the application, and Spotify to launch in the States. (Found on TechCrunch)
