The best piece of software you could ever download <3 Please feel free to recommend any bands to check out for fellow Spotify users. You should all have a listen to Passion Pit, and their album Manners.
 
Does anyone outside of Europe actually know of its existence?

Yeah bro, although I prefer listening to iPods. I guess I just don't really spend much time in front of the computer. And I don't think it's available outside Scandinavia and the UK (?), so I'm guessing it isn't very well-known elsewhere. 
 
As for a recommendation, I've really been digging some of the stuff by DatA.

I'm a bigtime spotify user. I even pay the premium free because I love it so much.  

@MrBig: You can get spotify for smartphones and even for the iPod Touch. You have to pay for the premium service though. I have it on my Nokia and it is pretty neat.

Because I'm old school.

I use it for listening to music people have recommended and stuff that I can't steal. It's good.

I was going to try it out awhile ago but wasn't available in the US. Is this still the case?

@CitizenKane:
It's a music streaming service, which gives you the option to pay to download tracks too. Think of it as a try-before-you-buy/download free service.

They said it was coming, but that was a while ago. Just use a french proxy to register.

You can only use it for two weeks before that account becomes disabled again. That is, unless someone in a region where spotify is available logs in to your account. That will fool the software to think you're on a vacation in that area.

Also:
 
Heck yeah I use it. Even hooked up a few American friends with accounts so they can take part of the joy that is Spotify as well!
