This is a really great idea...

I'd love to see an RSS feed with each days albums with a simple format something like;

I'm not sure how good the Spotify API is, but could you not also have a spotify playlist of the top ten albums?

Anyway, well done!

An RSS feed is definitely on my todo list! Unfortunately making playlists isn't possible in the metadata API (and you can't use the full libspotify api on appengine) so that's not going to happen for a while I think...

I wish playlist stuff was in the metadata api - I'd love to write the same app but for playlists instead of albums. I can get the data but can't decode the playlist to figure out who created it and what's in it etc
