Spotify is not for me. I buy my music! Sure I can here to get a song sample along with ITunes. Youtube you can hear an entire track. But at the end of the day I want to buy it so the artist gets something. Also with Spotify I know people that were streaming in the new Anthrax...great. A week later Anthrax pulled all there stuff. For me when I get bored I can pull it off my pod and when I want to revisit just add it cause I own it. What I see good about Spotify is maybe the person who illegally downloaded maybe because they love music and don't have the money to spend. Spotify allows them to pay $11 bucks a month to hear new music. So in that case something to the artist is better than nothing.
