enjoying this specific session, but i do wonder whether the voting thing could get a little annoying - prefer the outloud set-up of just queuing stuff up.
― Fizzles, Sunday, 5 February 2012 17:05 (twelve years ago) link
yeah if a certain faction only likes one sort of music then they all vote en-masse for it and it could get very samey.of course if you only want one form of music played that faction could set up their own room

Just clicked on the African room and Jack Peirson has added Nigger Hatin' Me by Johhny Horton.
― fun loving and xtremely tolrant (Billy Dods), Sunday, 5 February 2012 17:18 (twelve years ago) link
If everyone agrees not to vote then I assume it's the same as an Outloud queue.

― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Sunday, 5 February 2012 17:38 (twelve years ago) link
the dubstep room is by far the biggest room. 379 listeners just now, lol.

No way to use this in Canada, eh?

the overlay ads are freezing & crashing the entire app, i may pay up just so that i can use it properly

haha OTM

i started a post on http://support.soundrop.com/soundrop/topics/doom_black_metal_public_rooms_please asking for more subgenre rooms, the viceroy replied too. Could maybe you all reply to the thread agreeing with us and ask for what genre rooms you would like? (djp if you say the metal subgenre rooms are a great idea i'll back you up on 80s goth and 80s industrial!, deal?) :)

i figure the more who post on the thread the more notice they will take. It would be much appreciated if you all do.

I listened to the dubstep room this morning, and it sucked.
They need more electronica rooms in general, plus maybe more than one hip-hop room.

well then post on my thread and ask.
i did post on another thread , as did viceroy http://support.soundrop.com/soundrop/topics/more_stations-16k1lj
i suggested a drop down submenu for each genre where subgenre rooms could go
Maybe if when you click on the Metal room in main list it could bring up a sub-menu that asks if you want to join a Doom ,or Black or Death,Heavy,Industrial,Thrash etc roomSame with indie - it could have a submenu with all the subgenres. This way the main page could be kept nice n tidy?And of course with the various other genres like Electronic et al
as in the metal room there's arguments over metalcore/deathcore/borecore/death metal/black metal/grey metal/nu metal/old metal and so on. Its bound to be the same in Indie or Electronic or Country and every genre on there.just having one metal/country/indie/electronic etc room is no use.
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Friday, 10 February 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago) link
so the best way to make it happen is to post on one of those threads. The more who actually post on a thread the closer it rises to top of the page and will get noticed by employees of soundrop

I use Spotify in Canada with a VPN. My employer pays for it, but they are not really expensive and totally worth it. Can't get Spotify premium though... need a US billing address and credit card for that.
― smash williams, Saturday, 11 February 2012 02:32 (twelve years ago) link
iOS app added extreme 320kbps quality streaming and syncing today. Not sure if that will make a difference that I'll be able to notice. Sounded pretty good to me before.
― Moodles, Saturday, 11 February 2012 07:34 (twelve years ago) link
My idea was that you could log into Spotify with last.fm I'd...because last.fm has a strong community feel that Facebook doesn't.
― Gavin McLayoff (u s steel), Saturday, 11 February 2012 12:38 (twelve years ago) link
I think Last.fm are still pretty suspicious and wary of Spotify for obvious reasons.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 11 February 2012 13:00 (twelve years ago) link
looks like theres been some trouble in the dubstep room on soundcloud/spotifyhttp://support.soundrop.com/soundrop/topics/harassment-ivhag

Spotify tells all of my friends the title of the last song I played, but it doesn't tell me what it was.

play queue > history?
― The Winged Devil Ape (Fizzles), Tuesday, 14 February 2012 19:25 (twelve years ago) link
History only goes back as far as one session.
I was only wondering because it lists the last song for my friends list, and I'm wondering what it's telling them I listened to.
― billstevejim, Tuesday, 14 February 2012 19:29 (twelve years ago) link
DJP- i dunno what to make of that. Terrible she's being harassed, but wtf was she doing posting nudes of herself to all and sundry.

so i have spotify in my dock (mac os x lion), and whenever i click on the icon, another spotify icon appears in the dock, and it's that icon that gets the little blue light under it saying the program's running or whatever, while the original spotify icon i clicked just sits there.
this started happening to me and around the same time Airfoil stopped working to send Spotify to my good speakers
I'm hoping these steps will fix both issues but I haven't tried it yet
http://www.rogueamoeba.com/support/knowledgebase/?showArticle=AirfoilSpotifyRelaunch
When an update for Spotify is available, Spotify automatically downloads it. It then quits itself and launches the update, all without any interaction from you, the user. This is non-standard behavior for Mac OS X, and can cause issues.
Additionally, when Spotify is unable to modify itself in the main /Applications folder -- for example, if the user is running a non-admin account -- then Spotify will install the update to the user's Home folder (in ~/Applications rather than /Applications). After that, every time the version in /Applications is launched, Spotify will quit itself and launch the version in ~/Applications. Again, this is non-standard behavior for Mac OS X, and can cause issues.

the soundrop rooms on spotify have now been expanded. Lots of dance music genres like House, drum n bass, electro, chill out and theres rnb, reggae,post-rock rooms too.no indie or metal subgenres as yet
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:36 (twelve years ago) link
oh yeah theres a trance room. think the hip-hop room is new too
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:37 (twelve years ago) link
this is my first year primarily listening to new music thru spotify and there's just too much! i already have 35 hours worth of music from 2012 alone to listen to. who has the time???
― Mordy, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 13:58 (twelve years ago) link
lol my 2012 list has two albums on it (Schoolboy Q and Sleigh Bells)

What are ppls experiences w spotify on an iPhone while driving? Is the connection really spotty? Is it worth subscribing to?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 21:58 (twelve years ago) link
With Chicago 3G coverage, I basically can't stream unless I'm on wifi. I use the available offline feature extensively.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:03 (twelve years ago) link
how does the available offline feature work? is it just select albums, or do you get a certain amount a month to make available offline?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:08 (twelve years ago) link
You can make any playlist available offline. It is limited only by the storage capacity of your device.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:11 (twelve years ago) link
you can make them available offline as much as your HD can take i assume
come in http://open.soundrop.fm/s/VjWCayQ8GaB04GHI
Your smoking buddy and i are in there, mordy
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:11 (twelve years ago) link
um, can't we all hang out somewhere w/out non-ilxors?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
theres user rooms but outlouders wont use soundrop so there would only be us. its a pretty good room. will be better once they have more subgenre rooms. We use this during the day while frobisher is at work but outloud gets used normal times. except noone ever seems to be around in there when i go in, its just jeff or sanpaku in
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:24 (twelve years ago) link
The offline feature lets you download 3300 tracks to each of your mobile devices. This is what I use for driving.
― Moodles, Thursday, 23 February 2012 00:15 (twelve years ago) link
i got premium and it looks like it does exactly what i want. yay.
does anyone maintain new album playlists curated by taste/genre/new comedy albums/etc?
― Mordy, Thursday, 23 February 2012 00:28 (twelve years ago) link
what did you think of the metal room? also you tried a user room yet? you could get ilxors in it who dont do outloud
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Thursday, 23 February 2012 00:33 (twelve years ago) link
they could listen to destroyer and pj harvey and argue about it at the same time
fans of each voting their songs up past the other. all out war!
― pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Thursday, 23 February 2012 00:34 (twelve years ago) link
not a big fan of the metal room. my tastes there run so idiosyncratically that most of what is played by other metal fans doesn't interest me
