Hi Beology,

Spotify certainly seems to be the one. Whilst I don't use it for myself (as I make my own playlist to suit my mood) in iTunes, I certainly have a lot of friends who do and share them on FaceBook. We tend to compile Spotify playlists for our radio presenters / DJs to share with their followers plus I tend to write them for our radio station websites as well as an Athlete that I represent & manage.

Certainly it's a nice way to share music.

Interesting also that 59% of all young people who listen to the radio do so on a radio app on their mobile!!! 

Certainly, the more ways to find and enjoy music the better. It is sad that in the UK probably LESS THAN 1% of all of the great bands and new music out there actually gets played on mainstream radio!!!

I use Spotify all the time and I can't recommend it enough. At work it's piped straight into the speakers from the Mac (we have a collaborative playlist that we can all add to in the office) and at home I stream it through my V1 and BeoLabs via an Apple TV from my iPhone. I gave up downloading music about 3 years ago!

JK thats a really great idea at work!!!

V1, BeoLabs, Apple TV and an iPhone are matches made in Heaven!!!

Thanks Paul!

I use Spotify for "easylistening" and for re/discovering old/new music - using iPad-app/Playmaker attached to my old AudioMaster/A.MEM.

For "heavylistening" I listen to my FLAC-ripped CD's through Squeezebox/SqueezePad via line-in of the Playmaker (and CD's too).

Spotify claims to be 320' quality - but not always is!

When we in the future (maybe) we can have uncompressed streaming, I will stop buying CD's.
