Spotify app

Hi there!

Following this thread ... I wanted to ask if you guys use the app Spotify to listen or to download music? If you do, would you recommend it?

I've looked at the app but decided against using it.

I only have 2gb of data use per month so wouldn't stream although I'm aware of the Offline mode.

I either use my own playlists from youtube and I keep music in my DropBox.

Edit : forgit to say I didn't like the adds in the free option, and am not wanting to pay £10 a month.

I would have no use for it as my 3gb music is stored on the sd card and in Drive and Dropbox.

I probably only listen to music a couple of hours a day whist travelling or in a bar so I have plenty to go at. I have no real like of modern music and I'm happy with the old 60s, 70s and 80s stuff with the odd artists from more recent times.

Yep, Spotify Premium user here - I wouldn't be without it.
If you're a Muso it's a must have app & service

I'd absolutely recommend it, especially premium. All the music you could want without having to wait for downloads for just £10/mo (although as a student you get 50% off so I may be slightly biased), what's not to like? I really like the top lists and browsing, you find all sorts of interesting new music. If you're worried about your data allowance you can download playlists over wifi to playback whenever, you can even sync across multiple devices.

I'm old school...I like my own music and best of all it's free. If it ticks your music needs then it's not to be knocked, it's just not for me

It is interesting how the individual micro manages their music wether it be an app or like me iTunes and playlists.

No management, micro or otherwise required with Spotify. Just open app and press play.
You can never loose it. There's no need to store it and it's good value considering the choice of content and the unlimited access - All works for me personally

Jane, I've had a quick look on the Spotify forum and it appears not at present, however, people are asking for an app compatible with your phone , so it may come in the future.....

You can also listen music for free although you might have to listen to some ads too...

Re: Spotify app

MI5 — Thu, 28 Aug 2014 08:59:14 GMT

Irritating ads too - It's worth the subscription just to get rid of them alone.....

I didn't into it until I was on Three and they gave me a year freee. Then I moved to the free one and used shuffle a lot. However now I have another year contract which only cost £35 so i'm abusing that as much as i can on all my tech pieces.

hello Marina ..... I don't think hearing adverts would bother me really ..... I do not like modern music much except the odd one like Avici: Hey Brother ..... James Blunt: Bonfire Heart ..... Killers: Human ..... can't listen what-so-ever to rap (rap is Cr*p) ..... house + acid neither ..... but wait I'm thinking like I'm listening to music from radio ..... I'd get to choose my music eh?

btw Marina,

its visual disturbances with my eyes & head that I've to manage eg your avatar may be eyecatching & it certainly is ..... but ..... jonsies gentle movement of the flag is not disturbing to me ..... sorry & sad to say the 'pinging movement' of your avatar does do just that ..... = ..... grabs my eyes attention immediately to them ..... = ..... no offence meant ..... = ..... you're a paid O2 Community employee & you choose your own avatar ..... just saying & distracting is not the same as saying annoying ..... I've said more than enough :womanembarrassed: ...... you can pm me if you like ..... no worrries
