Spotify "Music streaming Service": Review
For those of you wondering what's been the buzz about "Spotify", Here Is a brief review of this new music streaming service. At first glance once you launch this service you would automatically make the assumption that Its just like itunes. Well to a certain extent; but this service delivers In many aspects. For example you can stream High Quality music straight to your computer and or mobile devices. Spotify Is designed rather well and Its connectivity with social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter make it easier to share your music & custom playlist. I don't want to seem like I'm overly hyping this service but It's well worth the invitation and I highly recommend you give it a try.

Set up your computer (PC)
- Step 1: Download and install the latest version on Windows Media Player.
- Step 2: Go to Library > Add to Library and add folders you want your PS3 to access. All personal folders (Photos, Videos, and Music) are selected by default, but if you have media in other folders, add them.

- Step 4: Go to Trans-coding Settings, and change the Maximum bandwidth to 14 or 15. If you have a very strong network connection, leave it at 0. If you don't have a 5.1 surround sound theater, go to the "Number of audio channels" settings and change it to "Stereo."
- Step 5: At the top, hit "Save" and "Restart HTTP Connection."
