This is a great example of how competition spurs innovation. Rdio has always been a great service with a poorly done trial period that probably discouraged a lot of people from using it long enough to love it. The only reason I stuck with it past two weeks was because my fellow geek friends pushed me to give it a shot since they loved it so much. Spotify definitely pushed them to re-evaluate this trial period and probably helped them push on the labels to offer them more profitable licensing deals for free users. Great to see the rising tide lifting up some other boats in the music industry.
