It's curious reading most of the comments...seems like most of those commenting hadn't actually used Songza.
Hand's down it was the best selection of curated playlists that were easy to discover. Spotify had something roughly similar, but you had to search specifically for it, where Songza was more categorized. I kinda like thinking of it as the very early days of the Web -- Songza was the early audio Yahoo ... that was cross platform.
I've seen some great lists from Nokia Music on Windows Phone and some decent lists from iTunes Radio, but Songza was generally better overall.
I'll keep using it, so long as it is a stand alone app. Once that ceases, I may move elsewhere.
My impression too. Tried 8rtacks, but the limited skipping and the terrible ui put me off.
It seems they are now redirecting all playlist URLs to daily.songza.com though - can I still access them in some other way? Being able to import them to Spotify would be killer.
