Can someone explain Spotify to me?

What is it? An iTunes replacement?

Wish I could. Friend at Chevy gave me an invite, was excited! Found out its a no-go for Linux, and you cannot stream music unless you buy the premium package.

BUT from what I gather, it's a cross between Pandora and iTunes. You select specific songs to stream, instead of listening to a station. You don't necessarily download them, but just play them "from the cloud".
But, you cannot stream it from your phone unless you buy the premium package. *********.
