Spotify and Hulu are teaming up to give US college students access to both companies' premium services for $4.99 a month. The new service is aptly called "Spotify Premium for Students, now with Hulu."

Spotify's announcement hints that this package is just the first of many bundles to come for the two services. This one pairs Spotify Premium, the company's ad-free music streaming service, with Hulu's Limited Commercials plan, which lets you stream current TV shows, movies and original content.

Meanwhile, torrents are free, and commercial-free--100% cheaper, 100% less suck.

    Not spoon-feeding is precisely how they keep themselves secure. That and a recomenndation system that gets you banned if you let in someone that gets banned.

    That and a recomenndation system that gets you banned if you let in someone that gets banned.

    Sounds like a built-in self-destruct.

    A invites B. B invites C. C invites D. D invites E. E invites F. F invites G. G gets banned for bad behaviour. F gets banned for inviting G who got banned. E gets banned for inviting F who got banned. D gets banned for inviting E who got banned. C gets banned for inviting D who got banned. B gets banned for inviting C who got banned. A gets banned for inviting B who got banned. And whoever invited A also gets banned. Ultimately, if he doesn't exclude himself from his own rules, the owner has to ban himself, because ultimately he was the first to invite others.
