    I came across the beautiful thing called Spotify and i was wondering, at 9.99£ a month i thought really expensive but it must be much cheaper than buying my music ^^

    Do you guys think its worth it? Because im not going to buy music all the time but when i do it really expensive >.< wheras on Spotify i get for free ^o^

    I dont really have a sorce of income either so it would be 9.99£ lost foreveeerrr

    Unless you're willing to use YouTube, I'm pretty sure it's worth it. I personally love Spotify. It makes so easy to find new music by 'Discovery' and 'top lists', not to talk about how good the quality is compared to the 240p/360p videos you so often find on Youtube. I'd buy it.

    ^That's lame, the only reason you have to buy it in the US is if you want to go advert-free and/or use the mobile app. I love Spotify, way better than Pandora or Grooveshark so yeah I guess I'd buy it but 10..wait that's pounds right...so 17 bucks a month??? That's pretty unfair, we should work on getting some kind of Spotify free trade agreement with y'all.

    Depends how much you use it...I mean it'd cost you £10 to buy an album, so do you listen to more than one different album a month?

    I use Spotify ($9.99 a month) 24/7 and it is totally worth it if you listen to music a lot. I've downloaded (digital copies) 5-10 new music albums, plus have a favorite list with 500+ songs that makes it the best option for me.

    Is there no option to listen for free with adds? That's what I do. The adds can be annoying, but it's very easy to find the song you want. Unless you have a consistent source of income I don't think it's worth paying for.

    I use it free. I don't use mobile and it's only one commercial every 3-5 songs, so it doesn't bother me enough to pay. If I did get premium, I'm certain it wouldn't be worth it.

    Nah. You can download from youtube. I think it's even legal. And there are other, slightly less legal possibilities as well.
