So after a long wait, Spotify finally release a new beta for android and guess what? It won't work on WiFi only devices (e.g. tablets without 3g phone chips and presumably media players). I have been in software development for over 30 years and am staggered that something can be designated beta with such a glaring fault. Surely this must have been noticed by the development team. Don't they own any tablets?
The android community have been very patient with Spotify, but then again, Spotify has had a virtual monopoly in the UK so there has been little choice. It is only a matter of time before the record companies do deals with other on-demand streaming providers (Rhapsody, Google?, Sky?) in the UK and can offer a similar choice of tracks. Then we will see who can do android properly as the only service differentiator will be the quality of the mobile apps.
Spotify - you have been warned!
