I love music streaming services as a whole, and Spotify definitely takes the lead with a wide collection of music that I can access with simply a few taps away. I couldn't imagine going back to iTunes. If my guitar teacher (teaching me rock) or my piano teacher (teaching me classical) wants me to learn a new song, I can pick it up directly on Spotify! I think we almost under appreciate the easy, yet justly access Spotify and the entire industry has given us to music. Listening to music is what keeps me functioning, be it while I'm coding, or taking a jog. They've done a great job with the iOS app - it's very nicely designed (uses modern/flat iOS 7 design paradigms) and has some well thought out features including queuing songs, Radio (music curation to help you discover new songs), and has a built in social element, so I can check out what my friends are listening to. Their business model is great too, you can access any song, anywhere, however ads and lack of offline-support without paid subscription. Streaming music is fast and easy. Really. Everytime I look at iTunes a little bit inside me dies.
