My biggest gripe is the lack of music discovery functions. MOG is a competing service and I find their artist radio functionality helps me find new bands I would have never heard of before. Spotify lacks anything resembling discovery functions and that's why I cancelled my subscription. Additionally, how is there no web UI for music playing?

Didn't you seen Sean Parker's email? Desktop clients are like, totally the way to go :-P http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3077425

Spotify's desktop client has a somewhat decent radio function, but it's missing from the iPhone app. I agree with you 100% that they're dropping the ball on discovery (What are the top tracks my friends are listening to? Where's the last.fm style recommendations, based on what I like?)
