For someone who listens to a lot of International rock/metal/post-rock etc I can say most of the names and even some obscure Norwegian/Australian bands are present. The ppl complaining probably are referring to local content(Bollywood/Marathi/Hindi/Tamil music). The recommendation engine is fabulous as always and the podcasts section has a pretty decent collection too


No, a lot of big names are missing. I will still use it as discovery is still miles ahead of any service.

For example they are missing names like Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Whitesnake, Fleetwood Mac etc.


In which region? I've had all of these all over my playlists for as long as I can remember... A decade?


I couldn’t find latest hip hop albums from Atlanta on Spotify. They’re on Apple Music tho.


Supposedly Apple Music has the largest catalog. But, catalog size doesn't matter if you can't find the song you want to hear.


I believe a lot of the legal issues with Sony/BMG and others need to be sorted out and I expect the catalogue to be at par with Apple Music soon


I've been stuttering since a child and still do so . Therapy as a kid did help me a little bit but I know its never going to go away . I'm not going to get into how speaking to girls/taking calls and presentations is not only difficult but also crippling especially when you see the person you address run out of patience and complete the sentence for you . Its affected me a lot and I dont think I'll ever be able to get over the social anxiety . So i started compensating by throwing myself into books and music as an escape mechanism . When that didnt help much I started drinking heavily and doing drugs . I still do drugs and drink to avoid the embaressemnt around my speech impediment and the fact that I dont stutter when I speak , but not as heavily as I used to . I've just stopped caring what people think at this point in time and still give conference talks and take interviews


What i would be interested in knowing from people who have been stuttering for years now is how they deal with it on a daily basis apart from not giving a damn
