Spotify for iPhone is here – bring on the cheese!

By Milo | September 7, 2009

I first sang the praises of Spotify back in January, and now at last, the eagerly awaited iPhone app has arrived. Okay so it doesn’t work in the background, you have to be signed up to the premier which costs £10 a month.. it doesn’t have half the music you want to listen to. This is no replacement for iTunes or your much-treasured music collection, but even so this is a revolutionary app and though I can ill afford another monthly subscription on top of my emusic account (of which I am now tempted to cancel), I had to sign up at least for one month to try it out.

Now I have access to a vast, easily searchable library wherever I have a connection to wi-fi or 3G, and if I can’t get online, then I can access any of my playlists that I’ve already saved offline. Of course half the pleasure is listening to rubbish that you’d never buy in a million years, so here I present the ‘Cheese Please’ playlist for your delectation to celebrate this momentous er.. moment. (Warning: Not for those with an aversion to truly cheesy pop).

Cheesy. But not cheesy enough, Milo – that would be the more credible end of my Spotifyin’ Spectrum.

Check out my certified 100% stilton playlist:

Brilliant DP, bordering on genius in it’s McCartney-heavy smelly cheesiness. Frog Chorus was the first record I ever bought, a picture disc too, still have it somewhere…

oh, i’m just going to have to admit that i have no idea what spotify even is and i’m kinda happy about that now that i realize you have to PAY for it! but the cheese toast does look yummy. i’m thinking midnight snack now, damnit! our cheerieos kick was so much healthier, hun xoxo

The desktop version is free to use Tarty, but it has adverts. I reckon you’ll be using it at least sometimes once it’s available over there. Cheese on toast was indeed yummy and was a purely coincedental choice of snack at the time the playlist was compiled.

Ps I agree, will have to make a cheerios playlist next!
