Default Spotify - iTunes alternative

Spotify is like iTunes except the music is free (paid for by adverts) and you can't download.

If you are in the UK you can join and download the app for PC or Mac here - https://www.spotify.com/en/get-started/

Seems like they have a pretty big library of music - most of what is in the charts anyway. You sometimes have to listen to an ad.

Thought I'd mention, anyway.

I'm not exactly a fan but you can listen to U2's new album through this for week before it is released.

There's some advice here - http://cormacmoylan.com/blog/music/5...es-inside.eire

Don't think you'll need an invite now.

This program was mentioned on the news tonight.

I think it's dum.

If you can't download it's just like a complex you tube.

I have looked at this today and I thinks it's great. You can look up an artist and split it by albums/singles etc with the original cover art.

it seems pretty pointless imo.

If it don't let you download it,t he couldn't you just go to YT or some other site. Seems like un necessary software if u ask me.
