Spotify does a lot with social (this is huge if you have friends who are also into music), intelligent music discovery (ie creating radio stations from your playlists, suggesting songs after listening to an album, etc), understanding the very specific nuances of your taste when recommending (ie Discover Weekly), control across multiple devices (ie, control Spotify on your DAC with the instance of Spotify running on your phone), easy integration with lastfm, etc. It doesn't even remotely compare to the modern services like Spotify or Apple.
