It seems that just about everyone who has tried it absolutely loves Spotify. It has in excess of 3.5 million tracks available, all for free (if you chose that option), all funded by advertising.

Uggla says that when he received his first earnings statement from Spotify it became apparent that he "earned as much in six months as a BUSKER could earn in a day."

However, Uggla was as surprised as most people when he learned last week that the major labels, including Sony, all have a stake in Spotify.

So much for fair compensation of the artists through legal services run by the media industry.
