Are you sure? Is there something special you have to do? I've tried searching by label, but it doesn't find anything unless there happens to be a label compilation (i.e. the label name is part of an album name). That's one feature I used all the time on Lala and now I miss it.

Did you try searching like this: label:"label name" ?

How do you find playlists that are being shared? I subscribed to the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs that I saw a friend had shared, but I don't know how to search for more playlists like this.

There must be some way of finding them just using the program. I want to find some metal compilations.

Yeah, I really wish playlists were integrated into the application; it seems like such a missed opportunity. Here are a handful of potentially useful searches:

label:"relapse records"
label:"nuclear blast"
label:"Tee Pee Records"
label:"deathwish"
label:"hydra head"
label:"neurot recordings"

I also just realized I don't pay attention to record labels with metal bands I like, so there are plenty other big ones I'm missing, depending on your flavor of metal.

In Europe we have radio by genre and/or decade, so i guess its disabled in America. It isnt that great to be honest, especially not compared to Pandora.

It probably has something to do with Spotify using a p2p solution to keep its main servers from choking. (the long version)

i'm on a poo poo connection (in this day and age I know) until the end of the month and I love using Spotify while I play SC2.

Though the upload/streaming lags me so much in SC2 that I usually have to pick one or the other

is there anyway to disable the upload for the p2p poo poo?

I don't want to sound like a dick, but for a service I pay 10 Euros/month for I kinda want to have the option to disable this. Leave the p2p stuff for the free users or the limited users.

I think for people experiencing lag, it's probably Spotify downloading music into the cache rather than the upload. This is especially noticeable if you're on a poo poo connection (like me! 3 mbit woo) because it will max your download for a few seconds and then nothing, then max your download, then nothing, etc. If it were a constant download then it wouldn't really be a problem.

Just wanted to say this is amazing and it really is worth paying $5 a month at least to kill the ads. Getting into a rhythm in a video game and have it hosed by a spoken in house ad sucked.

Although I never noticed a limit on number of plays with the free version, I played some tracks 10 or 20 times. Did they get rid of that?

In 6 months there will be a 10 hour total listening time per month limit and a 5 play per song limit per month unless you pay.
