My colleague Jesper mentioned a web-site to me a few days ago, and I must admit that this site has been on top of my favorite list for the last few days.
2. it has a TON of music in all sorts of versions (different artists, mixes and remixes) 5 mill + songs
3. the interface is just excellent, totally intuitive. It lets you ‘browse’ the music library just like you do the web, you will be on a journey through music.
4. you can make playlists which you save online and possibly share with friends.
oh yeah, did I mention it’s free 😉 well it is, and it’s totally cool.
There only seem to be one or two drawbacks;
1. it is streaming only, so you can not download music and put it on your favorite mp3 player for road-duty.
2. legality, So, is this legal? Well, to the best of my knowledge no, but hey I am no expert on international IT copyright law. Anyhow the service has existed for some time, and it strikes me as strange that it has not been taken down by a ton of law suits if this was blatantly illegal, my guess would be that it’s in the same gray zone as Youtube etc.
This is one of the coolest sites I have discovered for a LONG time… It does by far beat the closest similar service I know of, something called TDC Play (a danish service that require subscription with a specific ISP).
