Spotify works for us.....some downloaded to use off-line and some on-line. We also tend to use the Spotify radio stations with specific 60's, 70's, 80's etc. or country rock etc.

From the phone via Sena through Earmoulds.....we mostly music share but can each play our own if we wish.

cheers

I just load up music on the phone as they make good MP3 players and it's blue toothed to the helmet intercom.

Current intercom (cheapy) is only good for 80 k/h as above that speed the wind noise drowns out the sound. Looking at getting a pair of Sena 20S intercoms in the near future

Tried using those crappy mini head phone speakers before I went to the intercom but they wouldn't stay in my ear.

I've generally used a pair of of over ear budphones, even the Kmart cheapies have been good connected to my phone as as MP3 player.

However, work has given me a phone & said "use whatever data you want, we're on an unlimited plan, just keep it clean" So Spotify is now my daily listen. Considering going premium to skip the ads.

The other great one is ABC Listen, listen to podcasts, especially Richard Fidler for some interesting conversations to keep me alert.

Cheers

Yep, worth it if you use it often, especially since the ads became much more frequent! I get the student discount, makes it worth it for me.

Having a Sena 20S, I have the GPS + Phone + Ipod hooked up and can use all simultaneously.  :thumbs
If its a long ride and need the UHF, then it is GPS + Phone, Then the Sena SR10 with the UHF wired into it and the ipod connected via AV cable to the SR10.  :eek
I wear earbuds and tall the sound is crystal.  :runyay
Although at times, silence is bliss.  :like

oh, and don't forget, that the Sena 20S has its own fm tuner that you can pre-program stations into it through an app on the iphone.
