Hey to all those users of wp8.
As of this time I'm using a Motorola Droid 3 (rooted) with AOKP (Jellybean ROM) and as of late seeing how the Android OS has evolved (for better or worse), it seems to be more of a "playground" with all the rooting, ROM flashing, and whatnot going on. Recently I had opportunity to play with a 920 for a few minutes and fell in love with it, and was thoroughly impressed with the Windows Phone 8 OS in terms of how it looks and feels "professional" as a mobile OS. I know that the app catalog is not as rich as Android or iOS and that's ok. I use very few apps as is, but a few questions popped into my head regarding those apps that I do use on a regular basis and this is why I'm here. The apps I do use are
Amazon (Shopping)
Kindle
Amazon MP3
Dropbox
Edomondo
Facebook
Flipboard (News App)
Lookout (Antivirus app)
Netflix
Skype
ESPN
Spotify
Soundcloud
Ultimate Guitar Tabs (Guitar App)
Guitar Scales
My first question is which of these apps are available and/or are there reputable alternatives available if the actual apps themselves are not?
My second question is I'm a musician / teacher (I teach guitar) and tailoring wp8 to my needs as a musician I would like to know if there is a cloud music service / storage available ( I currently use Google Music.)
My third question question is if any of ya'll who have owned an android phone and made the switch over to wp8, what are the differences that you have noticed among the different OSes. (Sorry if the last question seems to too broad or doesn't make sense. It's late and I'm tired.)
