I get the podcast thing. I never use it, and I don’t think most others do. I’m hoping they just kill the idea at some point but who knows.

The library used to be more straightforward, but in the most recent updates or at least since I’ve started using it again it’s seemed much more playlist focused. To me, this actually makes more sense - with iTunes the “universe” of music is what I have downloaded, with Spotify it doesn’t really matter what’s in my library, everything is already accessible. Rarely do I just browse by artist in my library when using Spotify.

That being said, I do like to add music to iTunes still and sync it to my iPod as I have no faith that Spotify will be around for my entire lifespan.

What’s your issue with Spotify?

I have one, it works on pretty much everything including the classic 7. One quirk of the design is that you can use either the headphone jack on the remote or on the iPod, but the one on the iPod will give you much worse reception as it won’t use the headphones as an antenna.
