Phone Bulletin

Whether you have an iPhone, Android, Blackberry, or even a Windorws powered phone, there is a good chance you have downloaded and installed the Spotify app. Spotify is the revolutionary software that enables users to access virtually any song at any time through their computers or smartphones. While the sheer music sharing capabilities of the service are spectacular, most people don’t realize the implications and modifications their smartphones will receive if they upgrade to the premium service.

Increased Storage Space

Because you are accessing Spotify from a cloud server, the storage space on your smartphone is free from large MP3 files. This gives you increased access to your phone and allows you to fill your storage space up with more apps, software, photos, and other files that will make your smartphone more than just an MP3 player. According to an article on CNN, Daniel Ek considers music to be an important part of life and should just occur naturally without limitations such as hardware space.

Limitless Virtual Library

Along with the increased storage space, Spotify gives you access to things you have never even considered listening to. On the fence about purchasing a new album? Don’t worry because you can listen to it for free through Spotify. By paying for a premium subscription, you are giving yourself access to instantly customizable collection of playlists.

A Pandora Substitute

Most small businesses and restaurants use the streaming Pandora service in order to keep their customers entertained. While this service was a unique and innovative feature in the past, it has since become antiquated and obsolete because of Spotify’s radio capabilities. According to Wired, the new Spotify radio feature allows users to pick a genre or artist and continually skip songs in order to get the playlist that works for them. Pandora and Last.fm allow only limited access on smartphones, which means more people will be flocking to Spotify’s easy to use service.

Complete Cloud Integration

If you are ever with a music snob or even if you hear a good song on the radio, you no longer have to commit the title and artist to memory in order to listen to it later. By searching for a song while you are out, you will have access to it in your car, at work, at home, and anywhere else you can access the Internet. Instead of fumbling around with actual MP3 files, you will have simple access to everything via the cloud.

The people thought that MP3s were going to be the end of the digital music revolution were completely off. Spotify has rendered the MP3 obsolete and given those with access to 3G or 4G networks a completely versatile and convenient method to access any type of music they want. If you consider yourself a music fan an have not signed up yet, you are missing out.
