As much as dislike Spotify's UI, I listen to a mountain of fringe content that no other streaming service carries but Spotify has in spades, because all of the indies make sure to upload to Spotify.

I'm sorely tempted to build my own library/playlist management front-end on top of Spotify's API. They're the only streaming service I've found with an official streaming/remote control API, and with upcoming lossless support (albeit only CD-quality), their library with a tailor-made UI seems like the best trade-off I'm going to get in a music service.
