It’s pure bullshit. I know anyone that is able to download tje playlists in the cache of their phones. Since it’s no more free, they should be sued for lying to paying customers !

Have you tried Stereomood? It really has a new way to organize music:
every playlist suits a specific mood or activity and every playlist is user generated.

Lucy have you tried Grooveshark? I think it works in Brazil and is a nice service.

Can someone tell me if users across the globe can pay to have full access BACK and not the 10-song catalog we currently have for free?
I’d pay to have Deezer back because I like it better than my only other choice (last.fm).
I’m in Brazil.
So my question is: will I have to pay last.fm just because Deezer doesn’t want my money?
Why does it matter where the money is coming from?
I have it! It’s here! I want to pay!
So, does Deezer have the door SHUT to my money?
That is ALL I want to know.

Interesting news. Thanks for an informative article Robin.

shameless plug: If any independent or unsigned artist would like to get their music onto Deezer (or Spotify for that matter), Record Union would be happy to help you do this.

And, we are Swedish ; )

It’s nice to have another competitor to Spotify. It just means a better music service for us in the end. Plus, I’d trust the French much more easily than I’d trust the Swedes. Something about chrome dome Daniel Ek creeps me out.

like spotify isn’t working for italy while deezer is? not sure about other countries though.
what i wonder about the premium access about deezer is if there will be differences about the music licensing country to country [as it is for the free access] or if the library will be the same or at least larger for the countries now experiencing limited access to songs due to labels restrictions. if i pay and then tracks disappear… no nice!

What about skipping? Is the user limited? That’s the ONLY reason I haven’t signed up for Pandora’s premium service (and Slacker is too expensive). There are times during the day where Pandora just keeps throwing junk at me that the industry is clearly trying to promote. Limited skips ensures that I have to listen to the crap they throw at me. Not exactly what I consider a premium service.

Oh… and is it me, or does Deezer seem to be priced WAAAAAY too high?
