Hey Girls, I Just Found the Absolute BEST Website for Music Sharing!
Written by Nicole | July 24, 2011
Okay, besides Project Inspired, this is my new favorite site. I promise you I’m not getting paid to endorse this, just in case you were wondering! It’s called Spotify. It’s a better, faster, cooler music-sharing website than iTunes. It’s completely free to join, and once you do you have access to millions of more songs than iTunes can provide!
The best part: You download them FOR FREE, and there’s no wait time! You can create playlists, plug your iPod into it to sync your songs and share your playlist with your friends. It’s so easy to use, too! I am telling all my friends about it. The Los Angeles Times says, ” It blows the doors off anything on the market” and founder and CEO of Facebook Marc Zuckerberg says “Spotify is so good!” It’s revolutionary. It’s amazing. And I promise you’ll love it. You can thank me later.
Go to www.spotify.com

Cool! I’m gonna have to ask my mom first of course ^_^ I hate spending SOO much money on Itunes. I spent more than $50 on songs!
Posted by Nicole on August 18, 2011 at 11:35
I’m telling you- it’s an amazing website!! trust me!
Posted by on August 9, 2011 at 17:44
Just downloaded it. Crossing my fingers it works!

Hey I have the Spotify on my computer, and it’s saying that I have to put the songs on “local files” before I can put it on my ipod, but I don’t know how. Please, please help me if you can
Posted by Nicole on August 7, 2011 at 22:28
if you want to download it to your ipod, you need to upgrade to the 10$ a month membership. It’s worth it though, because that’s only 10 songs a month for the price in itunes!

i got the premium for $10 a month but it wont download to my ipod nano…. help???
Posted by on August 4, 2011 at 20:08
AHHH!!! I CANNOT get this to work, now all of my music is erased and I CANNOT figure out how to get music from spotify to my ipod…do I have to pay for an upgrade???? I don’t get this….

Hey Katie- please read my response above!

Hey Nicole! I just got an invite from spotify and synced my ipod and immediately tried to drag a song to a new playlist and then drag that to my ipod and it did not work. What did I do wrong?
Posted by on August 4, 2011 at 19:05
Hey…I have it on my computer now….but I can’t figure out how to download the songs to my ipod…please help 🙂
Posted by Nicole on August 7, 2011 at 22:29
I’m sorry I didn’t mention this, but you need to have the 10$ a month membership to be able and download the songs to your ipod. But it’s so worth it!
Posted by on July 30, 2011 at 20:02
is it legal??:)
Posted by Nicole on July 31, 2011 at 22:08
yes!! i promise!!
Posted by on July 30, 2011 at 11:39
I JUST registered to get an invitation! 😀 So if they send me one, I DON’T have to pay for any subscription, and I DON’T have to pay for any songs?! Seriously?! SOMEONE PINCH ME I’m dreaming!! XD
Posted by Nicole on July 31, 2011 at 22:17
yes once u get the invitation it’s free!!
Posted by on July 29, 2011 at 19:34
um, so yeah, I totally love you now. haha!
Posted by Nicole on July 30, 2011 at 00:31
Did you get the invitation now?
Posted by on July 28, 2011 at 10:47
I just joined today. It’s the bomb!! 😀
Posted by on July 28, 2011 at 09:07
How do you download the music? Or do you just need to download the program?
Posted by Nicole on July 28, 2011 at 19:26
you get an invitation to the website once you enter your email, and then you just click through the music and drag it into your playlist. (Search for the artist, or song.) and it’s instant.
Posted by on July 27, 2011 at 16:27
I wish I had an I-pod so I could take music to go… My parents want my laptop at home… 🙁

Well, if iPods are too pricey, you can probably look on Amazon for other MP3 players until you get an iPod someday. 🙂 I saw the Sansa +, and it doesn’t look bad. It’s not the same of course, and you can’t really sync it to iTunes and make playlists as easily (I’d know, I had an MP3 player before my nano), but if you just want to be able to carry some music around in your pocket, it’s not terrible.

Sansa’s work REALLY good, i had a Sansa E20 i think and even when I got my iTouch i still used it. then the screen broke. DX I almost cried.
Posted by Nicole on July 28, 2011 at 20:20
I’ve never heard of that, thank you Exlon for sharing that product!
Posted by on July 27, 2011 at 15:49
is it illegal? haha.
Posted by on July 27, 2011 at 10:30
How fast does it take to get it?
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:03
up to one week.. but be patient, it’s SO worth it!
Posted by on July 26, 2011 at 08:08
it looks awesome!!! I’m just waiting for an invite…. kind of confused on the invitation stuff :/
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:36
It could take up to a week to get one, due to the millions of people who are jumping on the bandwagon. Don’t you worry though it’ll come!
Posted by Nicole on July 26, 2011 at 19:34
It says it could be fast as one day, or could take up to a week. But don’t worry you’ll get one!
Posted by on July 26, 2011 at 08:01
Sounds like a great site. I signed up for my invitation three times and I still haven’t gotten one.
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:37
it could take up to a week, so be patient!
Posted by on July 26, 2011 at 06:46
Hey Nicole. I absolutely know you would NEVER post anything we shouldn’t do, but, this IS legal, right?
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:38
yes it is! I promise. Look at the reviews! Spotify has an agreement with the publishers of the music. It is free. 🙂
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 15:47
That’s awesome!! Hopefully my invite will be e-mailed to me soon(:
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 13:57
Does it take a while to get the E-mail? cause I haven’t gotten it yet.
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:42
about a week- sorry I should add that to the article!
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 13:26
So, since it’s free, is it also legal, too? I’m kinda big on that, and I don’t wanna steal anything… 😛
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 14:27
yes it is! If you don’t want to wait for the invitation, you can sign up immediately and it’s only 4.99 a month. It’s completely legal.
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 13:14

Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 14:28

Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:43
yes, but it will come within a few days!
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 06:47
It’s telling me I need an invite to download music. Did it do that to you?
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 10:54
yes, but you need to put your email in the box, then it will send you a confirmation in your email inbox. 🙂
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 11:17
How long did it take for you to get the invite??
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:43
read my responses above 🙂
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 06:34
This is so amazing! I love listening to music, and I am so thankful you found this website. 😀
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 10:54
I know it’s SO cool!
Posted by on July 28, 2011 at 09:57
Okay I just got my invite and downloaded Spotify! 😀 Now I have one more question. Is it possible to plug in my blackberry and download the music from spotify or is it only for ipods?
Posted by Nicole on July 28, 2011 at 19:26
I’ve never seen them mention blackberry, but they do mention Android, iphone and ipods- so I’m guessing no. :-/
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 14:27
I put in my email in the box and I haven’t gotten the invite yet. Did it take a while before you got your invite?
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:42
yes, about a week so be patient! It’ll come. 🙂
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 04:17
I am trying to get signed up now! One thing- the “Free” membership only lasts 14 days. It’s a 14 day trial. Thanks for the site though! At least we can get all of our songs that we like in 14 days which is plenty of time! 😀
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 14:29
yes u can! Or you can sign up at pay 4.99 a month. It’s so cheap!
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 03:58
But then the artist doesn’t get any money at all, and you might as well be downloading them illegally instead of using some great site. I’ll stick to iTunes. Not paying for things is dishonest, in my opinion.
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:44
yes they do- this website has been in development for 10 years, working with the music publishers and paying them deals and agreements to have their music on the website. It’s completely legitimate.
Posted by on July 24, 2011 at 22:16
helloo Nicole , I just wanted to say that I am loving the site & your facebook like page , so VERY much ! & I just need an invite in order to join the spotify music site ( :
may I have some help please ?
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 10:55
you need to put your email in the ‘invite’ inbox, and then check your email and it will be there!
Posted by on July 24, 2011 at 21:10
so anybody can download music on to their ipods completely for free? :O
Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2011 at 13:44
yes!
Posted by on July 24, 2011 at 20:53
🙂 Thanks. I’m gonna have to check it out.
Posted by on July 24, 2011 at 19:34
Sweeeeet! So checking it out! Thanks so much Nicolle(:<3
Posted by on July 24, 2011 at 19:24
Love it. Has anyone downloaded any music yet?
Posted by Nicole on July 24, 2011 at 19:30
I have! It’s SO fun and amazing 😉 trust me Paris you will be so happy you joined!
Posted by on July 25, 2011 at 08:27
Do you need a I-pod for it.
Posted by Nicole on July 25, 2011 at 10:53
nope! you listen to it on your computer! I was just saying, if you have an ipod you can plug it in and download the songs to your ipod 🙂
