My Question or Issue - I'm a fairly long time Pandora user and finally thought I would give Spotify a try (they offered a pretty good deal combining their Premium service with Hulu's basic video service). Well after using Spotify for a couple of days now, not really sure how good a deal it is. Does not seem to be near as user friendly or flexible as Pandora, with at least a couple of glaring deficiencies. The Radio function or feature appears to be useless as the user cannot even create their own stations even though Spotify's own Help site says you can. For the Album feature there does not appear to be continuous play from one album to the next - play just stops at the end of a selected album. You can shuffle tracks within a single album for what that is worth, which is not much. On the Artist feature if you have saved multiple Albums under a single artist, you can select that particular artist and shuffle tracks for that artist amongst all the saved albums - so basically this is the only real meaningful or useful shuffle feature. Compared to Pandora, Spotify appears to be a very bare-bones music app. So I guess I'll get to my questions. Does anybody out there a lot more familiar with Spotify know of way to provide continuous play from album to album and/or from artist to artist and preferrably to universally shuffle from track to track between both albums and artists? And I guess lastly, why does Spotfy's own Help section give instructions for adding Radio stations when it can't be done, and agin I have the Premium service, which is supposed to be the 'full meal' deal? I guess the one good thing I'll say is that Spotfy does seem to have a pretty good selction of available music based on the artists I've searched so far. Its just a shame they cannot provide a significantly better user interface.
