https://www.spotify.com/en/get-started/

Popjustice posted this link earlier so it's basically available for everyone now without an invite just by following the link.
I've been playing about with it for several hours now. This could be the greatest thing to happen to online music this year...I'm totally in love.

I'm pretty shocked that their hasn't been more posts about this here. I'm so addicted to it, it's great for finding those songs that you've not heard it years

Give it a try!

How? I use Last.fm but couldn't find out how to do that, unless it's easy and I'm just stupid.

Edit > Preferences

Then pop your details in the third box down and check the "Enable last.fm scrobbling" tick box..

Absolute genius and most days see a few thousand more tracks added. Looks like they'll have stuff from Warp licensed soon too - then watch it fly!

If it gets the U2 album exclusively on it then it's got legs to survive and IS being taken seriously by the majors......

Whoa...this is amazing. I remember something like this a few years back, but I think it must have disappeared.

Managed to locate the Scooch album I've been trying to track down for yearsss.. although I'm not even sure if it's on iTunes, probably is because they rereleased it when they got to Eurovision.

The Fast Food Rockers album isn't on there yet though.

I downloaded it, and I love it already. I can relive my musical childhood now without having to fork out for stuff from iTunes

I adore Spotify... Finally a way of previewing new music without having to download it from the "dodgy" sites and then deleting it and buying it physically.

Yaaaaaay.... But shit.... Now I wont get any work done!

Got shown it at work last week, very impressive.

It's like a firestorm going through the internet. Everyone is using it!

That wasn't me who made that list, it was created in another spotify thread.

I am glad this is a streaming site rather than a download because I do not like downloading.

Youtube blocking videos has done me a favour because spotify and last fm are so much better. The songs are in better condition to listen to.

Thanks for the people who named this site. It is excellent
