Spotify Replacements

Hello,

I'm looking for an easy and legal way to get music for free. I used to use spotify but now the time limits and song limits annoy me too much. I've tried using grooveshark but it just seems to crash all the time especially on Linux which I do alot of work on these days. Youtube works well but its too much as I don't want the video only the sound.

Is there another service like Spotify which I could use?

Thanks

Ethr

Spotify premium
all of your problems would disappear if you would give in to illegal ways of obtaining music
will not do :)

its a moral issue
Parent
because its not right
Parent
there is no such thing as right or wrong


also, i'd rather download music illegally, and if i like the album i'll buy it, though i only really buy albums from bands that i think should have more support



also: it's not illegal to download music, or any other copyrighted material in our country, it's only illegal to share it
Parent
i liked spotify as I could test out albums aswell
Parent
Don't want to start up a whole program to download that one song, this is just 1 click on the youtube page itself.
Parent
hmm in that case yeah.
Parent
Enjoy your max 128kbps shit.
Parent
192kbps, you hardly hear the difference. Also alot of remixes are not avi in 320kbps or on CD's or whatever and are only avi on youtube.

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6zGLm9wr24 What's wrong with the quality
Parent
vocals sound like a robot quality must sucks
Parent
720p uber awesome
Parent
definitely not legal
Parent
youtube
Spotify premium, there is no replacement for spotify.
5€/month, pls...
mp3ify.com

Google --> 'songname.mp3 download' --> one of the first 5 websites --> win.
torrent -> download whole album -> more profit then just 1 song :D, or what i use to do:

go to youtube and make a playlist of a few songs first, then if you find a random song you like you just put it in your playlist. this is computer-only tho but i used to listen to it when i made homework few years ago. the homework you dont really need to think about and could write just random gibberish because teacher wouldnt look at answers but looked if you actually did your homework or not. aahhh, great times
Grooveshark... seriously Google... first link... rox my sox m8
Just seen the Grooveshark bit... then hmm.. try find an app for it?:P... think they have an Android app.
Parent
i think flash + linux doesnt work well (grooveshark uses flash to play music instead of HTML 5 or something better)

Lots of music on youtube is not uploaded legally, and the amount of money Spotify pays to artists is pretty much criminal anyway. Why does it need to be legal if you're clearly not willing to do the moral thing and purchase the music you enjoy?
"Lots of music on youtube is not uploaded legally"

afaik watching it ain't illegal
Parent
spotify had adverts - i didn't mind that.
I don't want to purchase lots and lots of songs I just want to listen to them on a stream. Theres alot of music that I want to listen to but I don't want to buy directly, especially music which i've never heard before.

By the looks of things Napster is better than spotify premium anyway as you get to keep mp3's.
Parent
Don't act so poor, buy premium
u want legal? itunes, or wats that other one or go to the music store.
