Working from home I listen to quite a lot of music during the day/evening. In the one month I used Spotify heavily (5-10 albums over the course of a day) I found my bandwidth usage more than doubled over prior months while all other usage remained constant. Unfortunately that meant I went out of the scope of my ISP's monthly data limit and my bill skyrocketed. As strictly anecdotal evidence I'm now hesitant of any streaming service, especially one that utilizes P2P/caching technology as Spotify claims it does.
I'd love an invite please! My email address is lastone379 at yahoo dot com. Once I'm in I'll be passing it on to all my (soon to be former) last.fm friends.
