Actually, I agree with you. Spotify and Last.FM don't really overlap a lot. You can use Spotify to scrobble to Last.FM, for instance.

I'm a couple of months behind the curve here, but this is well worth a bump. EVERYONE needs to download this, it's flabbergastingly amazing. And legal.

I use this daily now, I only really download albums now if I really like it and want it on my iPod or it's not on Spotify. Great service. I like how it has loads of B-Sides and live versions as well. :D

Yeah, it's brilliant for checking out albums you miiiiiight want to buy (or download) to see if they're worth it. There are still a few gaps in content, but it's filling up all the time.

Nope, I just downloaded/started using it out the blue about 5 minutes ago.

I'm going to download this now. I have selected five of my favourite tracks, to see if it's likely to cater to my tastes. If Spotify has less than three of them, it'll probably get uninstalled before the day is out.

They have Rainbow's entire discography, so you should be fine.

I downloaded it yesterday and it's really good. It's great that it even supports Last.fm scrobbling.

Ah this thread reminds me I've been meaning to give this a shot for a while now, but I was put off by that story a couple of months ago about the company that runs it lost a decent amount people's personal information in a hacking incident.

I expect that fuss has died down now so I'll give this a download later.

Something me and Raze have been dumping stuff into

Feel free to paste whatever the strawberry float songs you want into it, but try not to flood it with entire albums (this means you Eight "OK Computer" Hours)

Raze: As long as they don't remove either of my versions of Mama, yes

Imagine a TV/film version of this, guys. It's coming. It must be. Give it a couple of years, and the present way of doing things in those fields will be on life support too.
