There is what I am calling a new kid on the block of music sharing. I am not sure when they started but what they are doing is cool. Spotify is a new startup that streams music to your computer for FREE. Yes there are others that do this such as Last.FM and Pandora however Spotify comes with a nice iTunes like application (though it is MUCH faster than iTunes). The music also starts installing playing like it was playing music stored on your hard drive. The way they also get the music to your computer seems like a new concept for a business model. Not only to they serve the music from their servers but also p2p (peer to peer). You know, how you stole that latest Katy Perry track last night.

Unfortunately at this time it is not available in the United States. That does not mean I have not used this application. Hopefully I will get some invites to share.
