hellobeatle Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) EDIT: Beat Music Mobile Page:Not sure if anyone signed up for Beats Music. Seems like a cool idea that Trent Reznor put together regarding the curation of songs versus how Spotify does is. Anyways, the GNR section has a Beats Playlist called Guns N' Roses: Influences. These are the songs on it:Van Halen - Runnin' With The DevilAerosmith - Mama KinZZ Top - La GrangeNY Dolls - Personality CrisisThin Lizzy - JailbreakT. Rex - Bang A GongBob Dylan - Ballad of A Thin Man (great tune!)Elton John - Goodbye Yellowbrick RoadFaces - Stay With MeQueen - Stone Cold CrazyJudas Priest - ExciterRamones - Beat On The BratCheap Trick - SurrenderGrand Funk Railroad - Footstompin' MusicAlice Cooper - I'm EighteenChuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode [single version]Billy Joel - My Life (got to be prank by Trent Reznor...)Slade - Cum On And Feel The NoizeSex Pistols - EMIDavid Bowie - Panic In DetroitThe Stooges - I Wanna Be You Dog [Remastered LP Version]Kiss - Cold GinHanoi Rocks - Malibu Beach NightmareRolling Stones - Gimme ShelterTed Nugent - Stranglehold Edited January 23, 2014 by hellobeatle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I hope nobody was paid to put this list together. I think Captain Obvious did it. Anybody who reads the WIKIPEDIA article about GNR could do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguy Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Interesting, I'll look into Beats. I love Spotify premium, and there are loads others, like Rdio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellobeatle Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) So what are your experiences with the service? Do you recommend it?Have not had the chance to really sink my teeth into it yet. The curated playlists looked interesting though. Some interesting curators from pitchfork to Rolling Stone to actual artists.. So long as it stands up to 4G/LTE without doing a number on my cell plan, I look forward to trying it out on my iPhone as an alternative to my song library.

Amir Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Doesn't really have curated playlists like Spotify, though there are playlists from the founders and from musicians (Trent Reznor used to make Spotify playlists before he came on board at Beats).

If you dig up a little bit you'll find great bootlegs from several major artists too, so it's even betterhttp://grooveshark.com/ Edited January 23, 2014 by Crash Diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Anyway, I've always loved this pic of Gilby from the TSI booklet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bonham Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Spottily is amazing. I subscribed to Spotify premium, and bought one of those really nice Bose speakers for my office.The sound quality/bitrate/whatever on Spotify far surpasses Grooveshark or YouTube, and they have pretty much every song.

I never got to test MOG out as it was US-only, but one of the selling points was a higher bit-rate (320K). I think now you can get most Spotify streams at 320K, though, as long as you've got it set to high-quality streaming in your settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
