Spotify and the arrival of the SPAPP

Last Sunday I went along to music hack day and a lot of the hacks used spotify’s new app platform. More of what I think about platforms another time.

I was a spotify user a while back but just ended up not using it anymore over a year ago. So I decided to fire up the service again to see if I was missing out on anything.

Perhaps I just didn’t give it a good enough chance but it did feel like I had no use for it. Maybe I’m not the target audience or maybe I need to upgrade to get the most out of it. Whatever it is I’m not finding it useful so far.

I like the idea of it and I thought some of the SPAPPs were kind of cool, but perhaps it needs a bit of time to mature.
