Spotify Sucks
All the hype and it turns out to be a piece of shit, worse even (if that's possible) than Itunes.

For one thing, the search is TERRIBLE. Unlike Rhapsody, you cannot browse by genre. In addition, it ONLY shows the most popular tunes. You can use the page down to get more but only if you haven't sorted by album or artist.

There is no one to display your library by year or by genre or any other category besides album/artist/title.

I like to make playlists based on the year but you cannot do that if you have no idea what year something came out. It's in the tags, all right, but you cannot display it.

Plus it imported all of my podcasts from Itunes plus all sort of things that I hid from my itunes library but didn't actually delete. So now I have to go through and get rid of all that.

It is really too bad. I paid for a month but I think I am going to go back to Rhapsody.

1. I'm liking it thus far.
I do wish that there was a genre search (alternately if it allowed track-tagging so one could search for a specific tag. One could theoretically tag for any piece of information imaginable.) but beyond that, I'm loving it even if it is a bit buggy. I actually like that they didn't burden it down with a hundred different search subjects.
