I don't understand why they don't have a web app, especially when competitors like Last.fm, Grooveshark, Turntable.fm and others do.

1. Crappy search (You don't get suggestions)
2. Not all artists are on there (Beatles for example) and they are somewhat slow on putting up new music
1:1 pricing aside, it's very good news that they're launching in the US.

Guess there could be some uses for a web app, but the desktop app is just so much better than any flash/html5 app. Haven't touched itunes after spotify.
Other than that, its quite responsive.
The UK price is over 50% more than the US price. As someone who's been subscribing to Spotify Premium in the UK for over a year, this feels like quite a slap in the face.
I know it's common for products originating in the USA (games, electronics, etc.) to make the USD -> EUR conversion 1:1 but it's interesting to see it's also done the other way around.
I am not complaining though, Spotify is an awesome service and well worth the money!
edit: Seems there's more people who noticed the same, it's even the same with GBP, which has an even bigger difference than the Euro.
