Now thats the way to do it!
Here in Sweden there is a lot of debate after the Pirate Bay case, and there is a political party standing in the EU elections called Piratpartiet who are ‘fighting’ for internet freedoms.
Recently a dear friend sent me an invite for Spotify.
Spotify allows you to listen to music on a stream and I am very impressed by it. I have listened to all sorts and my tastes can be obscure. Right now I am listening to Woody Guthrie’s Dust Bowl Ballads. See what I mean?
Its streamed so you dont physically add it your harddrive but its there whenever you want it. Its a Swedish based company and its financed by voice ads. To be fair its not too obtrusive either, one ad every five songs or so. Better than most commercial stations.
Spotify is an invite only beta test right now (sorry I gave my last invite out today) but its worth trying to get hold of one. I hope they succeed as its a great way of making use of the net and paying royalties to the artists themselves.
