Since last week I’ve been using Spotify. Although, if you are in The Netherlands, it is not yet possible to register, but with some little help of “the internet” I got an account already. Until today I did not encounter any problems, besides missing the very new albums and song or songs from The Netherlands (but good old Hazes and even Marianne Weber are already in Spotify). These things have without doubt to do with the record-companies being assholes..
The really problems I encountered today was some searches and/or artists bio’s being unavailable. The sunny side of this problem: the music didn’t stop streaming and I was still able to add songs to the queue.
So after a week I am very enthusiast about Spotify and I think I’ll purchase a premium account as soon as it is available in The Netherlands!

Today I opened the app again and I got the following message: “Your current location does not match that set in your profile. You may travel with Spotify, but only for 14 days. For unlimited travel upgrade to premium.“ So their is a check in the app itself for the location and I can use my current account for only one more week. After that I’ll have to buy a premium or register a new account :-)
