Thanks Raz. I followed the link and tried signing up via Twitter, but don't know if it even signed me up for Spotify or just Klout!

I got an invite from another source, but unfortunately it doesn't look like they've given me any invites. :( I'll keep checking back and post if I get any.

Once you've registered into Klout, go to the Perks section to get the Spotify invite..the Klout website is taking a bit of beating it looks like..so you might have to try it a couple of times..

But with the invite I got from Klout, I easily got onto Spotify and am streaming right now..

I'm surprised there's no capability to stream from a browser window, and that you have to sing up for the premium to listne from the iPhone app.

That really limited my usage. I was ok with commercials, but don't want to drop any cash for it.

If anyone is using the iPhone app, do you know if it works with Airplay?

Yes, it uses the system background audio API so it supports Airplay.

You can sign up on the homepage and wait for an invite?

Klout just uses your twitter info, so it's not that bad.

Ohh...I guess I misunderstood that one. I thought you got invites from already registered users, like in Google+.

Oh wait, you're right. Some people do have invites in their profiles. Not many though, but maybe someone will spare you one.

If you're on Spotify, be sure to share your username here. It would be cool to see what everyone is listening to...

It says on the invitation page: "If you have an invitation, you can invite friends to Spotify Free if they live in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the UK, France, Spain, The Netherlands or the US."
