Pretty much. And isn't that what Spotify is? or is it implied that Spotify doesn't have a library as big as she wants?

Lately, I have been listening to Slacker Radio with a Premium account ($10/month), and it is very much like Spotify and/or Rhapsody, and I have been pretty impressed with how big the library of music is that can be played on-demand.

Don't get musicians started on spotify, it's terrible for artists.

It's not implied, it's explicitly defined as part of their business model. Spotify's tagline for their catalog is "something for everyone." "Something," not everything, means it's a limited selection.
