I haven't tried spotify yet, but am interested in the app link news from Ford. To get it straight in me head, your phone signal connects to Sync and plays content in the car. That wireless connection is dependent on the phone. I live on the west coast, and you drive east or west of the major freeway corridor and 4G or LTE coverage drops to 3G or onto the old extended network. How will those older networks disrupt the performance of a web based service like spotify?? I like the idea of the library of music, but I just returned from the hinterlands of Canada, and our XM Inno worked like gangbusters the whole way. For my dollar the satellites may drop out for a moment, but they don't lose connection like any web based program could, and eventually does.
