Hi
Maybe this is old news, but I just read that the new "iTunes-killer" Spotify (http://www.spotify.com/en/ ) uses Ogg Vorbis (q5, ~160 kb/s) for their streaming service. (reference: http://getsatisfaction.com/spotify/topics/soundquality ) Nice to see that they're using an open source encoder!  regards Magnus -------------------- XLD // FLAC // LAME

First say thanks for showing me spotify, really nice music collection.
Now comes my question. I found a web page http://www.spotifyripping.com/?page_id=11 which states that ripping music from spotify is legal but if you do it you are breaking the end user agreement. I would like to know if it is true that is legal rip from spotify. This post has been edited by PaJaRo: Aug 31 2009, 14:30 |

I little digging with google turned up "SpotSave" which seems even nicer, as it rips the original stream. However I will only recommend this for making the music portable, which is not possible with Spotify yet. Artists still need the royalties from your playcount  A spotify-plugin for ones favorite mediaplayer would be really nice though. -------------------- Can't wait for a HD-AAC encoder :P

However I wasn't able to find a spotsave working version on the net (or maybe it works but it's my fault). Have you successfully tested it? if so please tell me where can i find a working version. Thanks in advance. |
