I didn't know about Paysius but i like their homepage, simple and clear I don't know anything about the service differences between Paysius and BitPay but Paysius has a better web designer. |

I frequent these forums, and watch for bitcoin-related news on the Web. I've never heard of Paysius until I stumbled upon this thread. It seems to be well designed and built. I just checked on the Bitcoin Wiki, there is nothing under "merchant solutions" (which looks scary, by the way), nor "shopping cart interfaces." The obvious concern is that great, functioning, and simple things like this one do not get exposure they deserve. It'd be a shame if bitcoin fizzled out because of problems of this kind. The network is there, tested and tried. Solutions like Paysius are also there, and there are more coming, but potential new users have a hard time finding out about them. +1! Ive head the name here or there being quite active on reading the forums but never looked in to it! This is an amazing service that I plan to use in the future. I just passed along their website to grooveshark.  |

grooveshark > spotify
Can anyone explain why this is? I've used Spotify since they first shot over to the USA, and haven't looked back since. |

To be fair, Spotify also has offline saving and you can upload your own songs and I am pretty sure it has a larger library than grooveshark. Although I don't think Spotify has been as awesome to their customers for asking about bitcoin. |

well.... some sad news.  I have no freaking clue who the "bitcoin CEO" is they are referring to.... If anyone out there uses grooveshark please send them an email requesting bitcoin integration! And if any "CEO" spoke with grooveshark would you mind detailing the convo? |

Instead of asking businesses if they will accept Bitcoin it might be more successful to ask if they will accept Paysius or Bit-Pay. Doing a quick Google search for those terms is going to get the merchant to the relevant information they need a lot more quickly than a search for Bitcoin.

Be sure to LOL at him heartily and inform him that there is no CEO, because there is no corporation, because there is no single controlling entity.
Also, Bit-pay and/or Paysius.

we have been emailing each other every other week. i have introduced bit-pay paysius and the new mtgox merchant API. I have linked them to a reddit posting i made about how i have been in contact with grooveshark and the potential with overwhelming support as well as this thread. i've done everything I can but I feel they just do not understand the potential or are just not willing to even take a look at it.... i have been trying to talk to the coders directly but will have to do some more investigating on who exactly that is because this person will not give me their direct email address. maybe you guys could help me out do some researching? and again... email them. tell them you would pay for their service in bitcoins. grooveshark seems to really be pushing for some subscription services. if they get enough emails perhaps it will get past this supposed VIP help desk employee and to the actual coder. EMAIL viphelp@grooveshark.com and voice your opinion! BTW i responded to their email asking who exactly the "bitcoin CEO" was that they talked to and elaborating how bitcoin is open source and owned by nobody... |

Annoying customer service reps to death with emails about the awesomeness of bitcoin may not be the best approach. Just sayin.
I really like grooveshark, I too would pay the extra amount if they accepted btc.

I wouldn't really call it annoying emails. I was very careful about how I approached it and we actually were engaged in some constructive email exchanges. I'm thinking they either spoke with or more likely just browsed bit-pay or something and just didnt understand it. I approached mtgox, and bit-pay and they said they would love to talk to grooveshark. Perhaps this is the CEO they are talking about.... |

I also already emailed them about bitcoin before this thread even excisted. They told me they are vey busy and will look into it at some point in the near future. I guess if we all keep mailing grooveshark they will maybe turn there ship and really look into it. I use Grooveshark everyday and love it so much. I also really would love to have this on my phone, but I refuse to pay for a premium account with Paypal or Creditcard. Man, if Grooveshark starts accepting...Bitcoin will skyrocket way up to the exosphere! |
