Spotifast 0.16 brings Windows Media Player skins, alongside the Winamp ones. Artist pages gain monthly listeners and upcoming releases, Settings shows what your storage holds, and other devices' changes appear as Spotify pushes them. Soloist is also sturdier: it reconnects after a dropped connection, stops when you quit, and a leftover copy no longer blocks the next start.
