I'm in. So far so good. EDIT: Not sure I'd pay another $10/month for streaming on mobiles devices I've already got it on Spotify. Great to have a web interface to queue up tunes, which Spotify doesn't offer, but that alone wouldn't be enough for me to switch.

I understand not paying for two, but in my first week, Rdio >>>>>> Spotify. That's on interface and navigation alone both on the iOS app and web. Spotify would constantly unsync my offline playlists, and I found it to be disorganized.

I've also found more music on Rdio that isn't on Spotify..

CAN I GET AN ENDORSEMENT DEAL

my nephew gave me a run down on Rdio, it looks great, but I'm not quite at the point of needing it yet

It's pretty hard, they want your email address and everything.

yes, using rdio (& working with them this year), and loving it, surprisingly, as i'm usually resistant to streaming consumption. the sync to mobile function comes in very handy. just gotta figure out the sonos integration.

We just got Spotify in Canada and:

Rdio >>>> Spotify

Though I tend to find more on Spotify than I do on Rdio. The interface is just way way better.

Fuck a playlist.

I don't use last.fm. Rdio is really good for having access to most of the albums you want to listen to. It's really weak for discovering new music.

Although I get the sense that it would be pretty great for discovering new music if I could follow a lot of people with roughly similar taste to mine. Hence this bump.
