Or you could just read what I wrote earlier. You're in some useless country that doesn't normally get to use spotify so you have to get someone in sweden, norway, denmark, uk or the netherlands to log in your account to get you another 14 days.

Yeah, I get that, but I'm just wondering why no one else here have complained about this problem and figured I was missing something.

Because they are a) not in a useless country or b) have read the instructions, and circumvent this issue using them.

Does Spotify work normally for everyone? I've been having some troubles for over a week, and now it can't even connect to the server. I've tried it on two different connections and it just doesn't work.

Signed up for Open. Its pretty awesome. Noticed though some tracks use 'replacements' which arent the same at all. Is it same on Spotify Free?

What do you mean? There are artists who have not consented to their music being on Spotify, but tribute acts that do appear. Is this what you refer to?

edit: VVVV eh what? Nothing like that on mine. The artist is always labeled as "xxx tribute" or something. got a title in mind I could check?

Something like that. It's labeled as the artist and the song, but when you play it, its a tribute performance, but they don't explicitly tell you that.

Probably a lot more trouble than it's worth, but I maanged to use a listing of Tor exit nodes to ensure that Tor would only use a UK address, then use the proxy setting in Spotify to reup for another two weeks. I really would like to just pay for it buuuuut

If this is against the rules, lemme know and I'll edit

Can't you just get a premium code? I know other people have used it from outside the allowed countries.

I'm going to try to compile all the poo poo I read to get it working, but when you get to the part about the 'torrc' file, this is what I use so maybe that will save you some trouble of finding your own:

ExitNodes $47CB023356ABD6C4B61AE950605566BCDF79C6C9, $950CFAFFA32EB6807216C672951421636FDBC3BB, $02F1B34CCAC69AD303CAAA1E1A89AF0E5DC5C26F
StrictExitNodes 1

You can skip to step 6 on this one if my poo poo up there works:
http://www.how-to-hide-ip.info/2009/08/08/how-to-use-an-ip-from-a-specific-country-while-running-tor/

There was another thing that I can't find right now, but my port in Vidalia is listed as 9051, but I had to use 9050 in spotify and I don't know/remember why that is.

Anyway, open your Spotify up and go to your Edit, Preferences and under Proxy, change it to Socks5, host 127.0.0.1 and port 9050, hit apply at the bottom, close it and reopen it.

It seems that just using a normal proxy would be easier, but I haven't been able to get that to work.

StrictExitNodes 1

...

Tor on the command line also accepts country codes so you don't have to find the nasty looking hashes:
code:
$ tor --StrictExitNodes 1 --ExitNodes {gb}
will work just fine. Not sure if you need to use the {}s in your .torrc, but this way you aren't limited to specific exit nodes if they go offline for whatever reason.

Does anyone have experience with Spotify Unlimited? I'm in the UK for a few months and really enjoying the service. While 10 pounds is a little bit steep per month, 5 is definitely more doable, and according to their site it also grants travel privileges.

£10 a month for what you get is a loving bargain, gently caress I used to spend closer to ten times that amount on physical cd's per month a couple years back. How anyone can find that to be too much is beyond me, they must literally be a pirate junkie with an entitlement complex who has never bought music.

As a result I have no problem with this change to the free/open users, Spotify needs to have a profitable model or at least an acceptable one that will keep them going to get a big enough market share so that they can start dictating the terms of the deal to the labels rather than it being an uneasy truce.
