Cloud Music: Almost there

Maybe I've become an Rdio fanboy, but I think it serves all of my needs when compared to the other services. I never really liked Grooveshark because of its incomplete interface. I could be wrong, but it doesn't seem as though there's enough money from a free service to support the artists. I'm also not a fan of cloud storage because I really don't "own" much music, and there's currently not an iPhone app for the Amazon store.

So why do I love Rdio? Well, for $10/month I'm able to stream and locally cache pretty much any song I'm into at the time. They've also done a stellar job at signing indie labels, especially the ones here in NC. It also has my network of friends, so I can see what they're into.

Like I said, I'm really biased but hopefully you'll find some useful info there. :-)

It's articles like this that make me realize how fortunate we are to be having Spotify in Europe. Streaming my music from the cloud for quite some time now, I actually wondered for a second whether the blogpost was a few years old!

> Pros: Expensive storage cost (Google offers 20GB for $5/yr)

Somehow I feel like this article could use a tiny bit of editing, as expensive storage feels more like a disadvantage than an advantage.
