Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

I meant to say that I'd like ye to add your favourite songs to the playlist I've linked to above :) I've set it to be a Collaborative Playlist.

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

We cannot Spotify over here.

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

I know you meant that. The Scandinavian playlist was set up in the same way. I may indeed do that at some point.

# Posted on October 4th 2009 by No Cause For Alarm

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

But how do we get into the site? Ir says we must receive an invitation or go on a long waiting list (or pay)
Any clues anyone?

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

Unfortunately if you live outside the few countries that currently have it you might have to wait. Sorry. You could always move to Scotland! :-)

# Posted on October 4th 2009 by No Cause For Alarm

F.A.Q.
What countries is Spotify available in?
Spotify is currently available in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the UK, France and Spain.

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

Random Notes, try http://proxify.co.uk. I can't say if it *really* works, as I don't have an invitation code.

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

Thanks Jürgen. Actually I am quite familiar w/proxies.
I have not used them, yet. Apparently Spotify plans to expand to the U.S. by years end.

Re: Gaelic Trad Playlist

Um, would it be too much to ask for one of you folks to send me the invite? Spotify looks really interesting.
