Spotify is Microsoft. Rdio is Apple. [March 2012]
- ilink 14y agoSo little content, so much fanboy-ism.
- serge2k 14y agoI use rdio because it was available in Canada when I signed up. It's a good service, but I'm getting a little sick of them revamping the android app and introducing major bugs every few months.
- wcdolphin 14y agoIn other news, a poorly supported thesis with a well constructed tag line got on the front page. Reword title to reflect content: "I like Rdio, I don't like Spotify. I cannot describe why, but I am also going to rag on Microsoft because apparently that is cool".
- petercooper 14y agoWe had the opposite experience here in the UK. That is, Spotify has been here years but Rdio only launched recently. I tried Rdio for a few days of the trial period and hated it (too visually noisy, too much emphasis on social, poor/shallow selection of music available). So I could sincerely write the opposite of this post but I won't because it's too subjective.
- chank 14y agoAs an audiophile and someone who has a very diverse music collection; both service aren't even close to worth it. Combined they can't even cover half my music library.
- sxlayer 14y agoThe only difference indicated between the two is that rdio has soul? Poor article, no evidence to support your opinion at all. Have a look at the availability of songs after release date compared to itunes? Spotify wins in this case.
- sxlayer 14y agoOh and spotify is cheaper....
- jsnk 14y agoFull disclosure: I work for Rhapsody. If you are in US, UK or Germany, please try Rhapsody/Napster as well. There's a free 14 day trial anyone can sign up. iOS app and Android app recently got big updates and the apps look really polished and snappy.
