To be honest, i was getting all excited when spotify was downloading, hoping it would be something amazing, having too many downloaded MP3′s every time i want to listen to music i have to plug in my external hard drive and its too much of a hassle, so i was really hoping for something special.
being into rock music i searched for my all time fave band – KoRn pretty good responce, but half of their albums were missing, dissapointing. then i searched for another well known rock band, metallica, and NOTHING?

However, Apple being Apple, they will most likely see this as a challenge and develop something like an add-on for itunes that completely takes Itunes to the next level and then some.

I share your views completely. It will be interesting to see them try out the US market eventually…
