4.99 USD a month for unlimited? It's 4.99 GBP a month in the UK, which is more like 8.00 USD. That's not fair! 1:1 pricing aside, it's very good news that they're launching in the US.

My early thoughts:
1) The software is snappier than, but not as well designed as Rdio.
2) Their catalogue is missing a lot of work from some of my favorite main stream artists (Bob Dylan is the biggest hitter I've encountered so far with a woefully incomplete discography).
3) No web interface like Rdio or MOG, so you're out of luck on a work computer where you don't have full rights to download and install software.
4) Being able to add in your own music files is nice plus since neither service has 100% of what I want.
5) Having an ad supported free version is great for sharing playlists. I've made Rdio playlists I'd love to share with their embeddable web widget, but only people with a paid Rdio account can hear the songs. With Spotify you don't get a web widget, but you can share playlist links which anyone can listen to with a free account.

Thank you! I used cJe98FeBPxbFKZq8 Now that I've created an account, do they give me any invites? I'd like to pay it forward. I don't see any invites in the app.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'm an Rdio user and I've been trying Spotify today. I'm not thrilled with their music library. There are a bunch of bands that I love that Rdio doesn't have (Arcade Fire, Shins, Ramones, Pink Floyd, older Flogging Molly, newer Eisley, etc.). There are only a few albums that I really want that Rdio doesn't have, by contrast. I feel like Spotify's UI is just a gray iTunes, whereas Rdio's UI is more in line with how I…
It's true that most of the bands you listed were not available a while back, but I believe all of them are available now. We are missing some Pink Floyd though. If there's something missing that you really want to see, make a request here: https://spreadsheets.google.com/a/rd.io/viewform?formkey=dHd... And thanks for sticking with rdio!
Spotify seems less exciting than Grooveshark, which has been available in the US for a long time. http://www.grooveshark.com
On the other hand, Grooveshark is the only real option in Canada.

I (and I guess any other EU subscribers) have a number of invitations if anyone here wants to try the Free version before committing to Unlimited. Anyone interested in one? Edit: can only send if your email address is on your HN profile, of course. Edit edit: http://www.spotify.com/us/amanda/ will be less hassle for all whilst it lasts.
