Great idea, I used it with spotify and last.fr plugins on Windows), it takes 15s to start playing a song (from spotify) and changing the volume level takes few seconds (it feels like VLC a few versions ago, it seems to use the same libs).

#23And I didnt like that I couldnt save the songs I listened to any the device that I listened to them on - like a simple local cache. Whats the big deal with adding a "Download" or "Save" option...for any streams.

#24Hope you guys like it. We've got a major update in the works too, as well as an Android app. All free and open source.
I have ticked the box that says use the Spotify service, but when I do a search, it doesn't find anything from Spotify. Am I missing something? Thanks

#25I really like the concept, but the software is totally broken in Linux. Not even adding files to a playlist works. The song names are in the playlist, but the files can't be found. The program crashes every time it's closed. And there's a problem with the default Ubuntu theme: Selected menu items have white text on a white background. A few patches and it could be a great player.

I like the idea, would it be possible to add YouTube support (or does that maybe already exist)? (Of course, only playing the audio part and ignoring the video)

#28Hey, That sounds awesome, I am curious, how do you work with the providers (google, soundcloud and co ..) so that they can make some revenue ? (because you know these guys are just not streaming music for free ... Also I tried the web-app with a good album (Pixies - Doolittle) http://toma.hk/album/Pixies/Doolittle but all the songs in that albums are actually covers or remixes and none are the original Pixies version…
