As I'm from the Netherlands I think this is great news! Rate of adoption is skyhigh in Sweden, I'm very curious as to what the release will do for the way music is consumed in my country.

Now if only they would allow for some better playlist-management in their client, I'd be even more thrilled.

They were looking for feedback on their playlist API at music hack day in Amsterdam two weeks ago. I think they're currently working on improving playlists in general.

The biggest change in Norway was mostly that you're guaranteed to hear "Hi! I'm Jonathan from Spotify..." at any party where people haven't bought a premium-subscription. Everyone found out that Spotify is simpler, easier and more convenient than ripping CDs or playing the CDs directly.

Nice! I'm looking forward to it, went to Spotify yesterday for some odd reason (I never ever go to Spotify) and it wasn't available for me.

Last week I checked there site and read: "Share music with your Facebook friends". And that's what I thought it would be so I didn't download it.

But today I read a Wiki page about it and I understand it's much more than 'Facebook only'. It's a great app!

Am I the only one who thinks there homepage is very unclear?

By the way: the VPRO is very progressive. They have been serving great music for years: http://3voor12.vpro.nl/luisterpaal/ (Dutch)

Great, after last.fm became subscription only I needed a replacement.
