Spotify vs Rdio over Bluetooth (BeSpoke)

I currently have subscriptions to Spotify and Rdio. I hate plugging my phone in, so I'm comparing mobile versions to see which works better over BeSpoke's Bluetooth.

So far, I've found that while I much prefer Rdio's phone interface (iPhone 4G), the Bluetooth connection seems to get confused. It'll constantly pause itself, display incorrect track numbers and times, etc. Spotify, on the other hand, plays beautifully. It's just a fuster cluck of an app. To find a specific album or song in your playlist is a serious exercise in patience. It's basically only good for shuffle play.

I'm just curious to hear others' opinions on either service, or if you have any other suggestions. I could always switch back to music stored on my iPhone - I guess I'm just trying to keep up with you kids an your new fangled technologies.

I just make playlists on Spotify and don't worry about searching for songs. Interface is fine for me, and it plays perfectly over Bluetooth.

I'm not really an asshole, but I play one on the internet.
