On mobile, you can listen to artists, albums and playlists in shuffle mode. Or choose a ready-made playlist to suit your mood. Even though I have a Spotify premium subscription, this is what I do 99% of the time. Thanks, I will be cancelling my premium subscription today.
You're not annoyed by the ads?

Rdio, in my mind, is far superior in a lot of ways anyway. I had a friend paying for a Spotify for me a few years ago, and switched to Rdio because I liked it better (and not because it was available in Canada too).
Unfortunately, Rdio's Canada library is different (and from what I can tell, smaller) than the US one.
And I have very broad taste in music.

I just wish google music had a desktop client (or support in chrome) to hook into operating system keyboard shortcuts like play, pause, forward, next, etc.
I've been using sway.fm chrome extension and it seems pretty decent: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/swayfm-unified-mus...

Agreed - I say this as a premium subscriber and have vast experience of the awfulness that is their paid for app, be it on android or ios.
Really? I'm quite happy with it.. I've been a subscriber for years, definitely worth the $10 if you listen to a lot of music. For me it's more like $14, but everything is more expensive in Scandinavia :(

Hey I just switched over from rDio to spotify. The reasons are that spotify lets you sync different songs/playlists to different devices and rDio does not. Spotify has a better library than rDio.

Would love it if you could answer!! Thank…
Hey ashray - pretty much what publicfig said. If you'd like, sign up for the beta testing of "Collection" across multiple platforms: http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Announcements/Collec...

Google Music is pushing into more countries. The only logical consequence. I switched from Spotify to Google, because: 1) Found a few albums, that disappeared from Spotify a few months ago. 2) 7,99 € vs. 9,99 € 3) Google Music allowed me to shuffle all of my music 4) The app is way better. I can always stop the player from the notification bar (on spotify that was a sometimes pain in the ass ) 5) When listening to mu…

The vast awfulness of their app? Are you using the current version? I think it's pretty good! What don't you like about it?
Adding stuff to playlists is annoying, could do with a bit of help. The search on the ipad app is a mess; I appreciate the thinking behind being able to follow your search history and go back a bit, but if I hit the search button I want to search for a song, not search through my history!
Generally just little niggles, I can't complain about the overall service.
