OK, first the good... I'm loving this portable Spotify and am getting through a huge amount of music as the tyres of my car hug the M1. Started the day off with MSTRKRFT to get the day going JFK – 1000 Cigarettes - Feat Freeway and then tasting the delights of the very talented Jamie T with his new album Kings and Queens Jamie T – Emily's Heart.
Have also hooked my Mac up to 'Richard's Turbo Sound System' at work so I can educate/annoy/spread happiness to everyone in earshot. Great.
Now onto the bad... these are only minor gripes but I tend to play my iPod through my car stereo – for some reason, Spotify doesn't stop your current iPod music playing when the App starts. This is quite annoying as whenever I attache my iPod to my FM transmitter it automatically plays the iPod music on there (usually the first song starting with 'A') so I have to stop this playing before my Spotify playlist will work.
It is a bit annoying that you can't create a playlist straight from an album like you can do on the Mac version - you have to create a playlist first and then save the tracks into it.
Also, the offline download sound quality doesn't seem quite as good as when you're streaming it. Well, not to my ears anyway...
These are just minor points that I'm sure they'll sort out with an update before too long but I didn't want anyone to think that I was on commission...
