Quick review

The good: Simple to use, lots of content, small download, "Radio" feature works well
The bad: Currently you need to be invited, territorial restrictions, holes in catalogue will deter some
Verdict: Some minor foibles don't detract from what is a great music service, so long as you can get access to it
