I believe Tango is supposed to be out today, as well.

That's 2 good apps in the one day then DanSmithKY.

Can't be bad.

I started a thread about this but got no replies; since tango is mentioned here, maybe I can sneak this in

If I make a video call with tango, does the recipient have to have tango also, or can he/she have any video calling application? For example, if my friend has an iPhone, can I video chat while I use tango and he uses whatever the native apple app is, or must we both use the same client?

I've been waiting for Spotify! Where did you hear that it would be out later today though?

Apparently it was announced at a private meeting for the press at the New York event icstars989.

It's also confirmed on the UK Windows Phone Blog

Installing!

*Happy dance*

I didn't realize that they would require us to be a premium member. I don't think I can make myself spend $9.99/mo on Spotify. At least right now.

I'm not a premium member and I'm streaming as I type.

They need Tango as well

Oooh. I think you're on a 48-hr trial. I already used mine on my WinMo Imagio a few weeks ago. Sad day. >.<

We'll see, but I really doubt it.

I just logged in with my original account details and, wallah.

Just downloaded it too. It's not showing in the marketplace on the phone in the US yet (at least for me), but the link TheWeeBear posted works great. It was installed and working in less than a minute! Now to decide if I want to pay $9.99 a month for the streaming service on the mobile...

What are the pros and cons of Spotify versus a Zune pass? Seems like they are very similar to each other.

^ TBH, I don't really see many overall differences between the two.

I really like the fact that I can stream or subscribe to my FB friend's playlist. At first I was very hesitant to log in using my FB account, but I really love this feature, which is a great way to discover music and could possibly steal my $10 per month away from Zune pass.

If you go to your account online, and go under subscription it will tell you when your Premium account will become a Free account. Mine says it will end on 2011-11-10.
