I have been a Spotify user since 2016. Despite some bugs and shortcomings here and there, I have been very happy with the Spotify experience. If I had to sum up the points I like about Spotify: Native last.fm support. This is extremely important for me, I love last.fm! Student discount (50% off) Great audio quality with OGG Vorbis 320 Kb/s audio Good, multiplatform desktop app (which is not a web view for the web player, although I have a feeling that might change soon) Great web player which has been getting better over the past years.
