Am I just retarded or can you no longer choose multiple genres when launching a radio station?

I've been wondering this too, it's annoying that a nice feature was taken away.

Get friends with better taste in music. At least half of my new music comes from browsing the listening histories of a couple of friends of mine who have really good taste in music.

So what you're saying is that you're the one with bad taste amongst your friends.

I'm holding out hope that the iPad app is slow in the making because they are including spotify apps in it.

That's a shame that it now "requires" facebook :( I still haven't synced my account with FB because I really don't need it posting to my friends every time I listen to a song or whatever.

Not defending the facebook integration, but you can turn off the automatic song posting in spotify's settings.

Does it play a kids song when you play it because for some strange reason it does for me

Do you have your home music library set up in Spotify? I had the worst problem with Spotify playing random live performances, or different songs with the same title from my library as replacements for whatever I was listening to.

It's titled "Current House/Trance" by Brian Lasser.

Does anyone have any other favorite playlists like this? Particularly playlists that represent a genre/style well, or keep up with new releases in one or something?

^ That was my understanding as well, but I occasionally get 'linked' tracks even on though I've removed all local files from Spotify.

Is it maybe also an indication that there are alternate versions available to stream?

I am all for this idea as well.

If you have a tape deck, I've been happier with this than anything else short of a line-in.

I've actually had the discover tab throw some decent suggestions my way. Of course, I only know they're decent suggestions because I already knew and liked what it was suggesting - but spotify didn't have any way to know that.

I guess I don't see what the outrage is all about (not here specifically, but I've seen people furious about this all over the place)? Even if it doesn't work all that well for you, it doesn't seem like it's in the way to me.
