A Greasemonkey script to add Spotify links to artists in Paul Lamere's SXSW Artist Catalog:
→Install←
Also, here's a CSV version of the artist list.
An aside: Spotify are keeping very quiet about the P2P network behind their music client. It's not a secret (sites with an interest in P2P cover it, and it's been there for years) but isn't mentioned at all on spotify.com, in the client itself, or in the mainstream news reports that are being published this week [Guardian, Telegraph]. The only indication I noticed was when OS X's firewall asked if Spotify should be allowed to accept incoming connections.

All fields are optional, email address will not be shown; no HTML, URLs are automatically hyperlinked.
Nice, I tried it but it didn't seem to work for me ... perhaps I broke things when I did an update to the artist catalog. I've added a target field to the artist anchor tag. Ideas?
It should add a small, faded music icon just after each artist name - perhaps too unobtrusive to notice? Worked OK when I tried it just now.
Hi
This script is really great and very useful, but I would suggest that it is slightly too unobtrusive. I really found it hard to find the links.
Great work though.
If you like, edit the script so that the opacity of the link image is always set to "1". Should be easier to see then.
