Has anyone else found that Spotify makes their internet connection really slow?

Question by Saira B: Has anyone else found that Spotify makes their internet connection really slow?
I just downloaded that new music thing called Spotify and immediately my internet connection got so slow I could hardly use it.

I’ve deleted the program and now things seems to have speeded up again.

Even when the program was completely closed it must have still been doing something in the background with my connection. Sneaky.

When you click the “x” button, it only minimizes it to the taskbar. You have to right-click on the icon and choose “exit” to completely close it.

If you have a slow connection though, you will find that it does slow it down as it is constantly streaming the music to your computer.
