Default Discovering new music? We7 & Spotify streaming

Yep, Spotify is impresive IMHO. Just how did you check the bitrate?



Just had a network monitoring tool hanging on the computer - it was
flatlining at about 384 (394 was a typo) all the way through a song.
Spotify is a no-buffering service so you don't get bursts of full

Ahh, ok, I wondered if that was what you had done. Spotify is a p2p app,
so you will be having data going out as well as going in, the traffic is
not just for your use.
