It's just that "spell list" generally means "spells knowable" elsewhere in the rules.  This is how I would like to rule it too, if only for game balance reasons, but the description says "Each spell ... is usable as an additional spell known as long as....." Clearly allowing more than one casting per stored spell.   I added numbers to your quote. I think the ring doesn't store spell energy, but instead stores knowledge of the spell, which is then available to the user. My (also tentative) interpretation is:1) Both types of arcane casters have to wear it.2) Explicitly stated for spontaneous casters, not specified for prepared casters.3,5) It's entirely possible that ANY spell can be cast into the ring, but that spells not on the wearer's class spell list are not thereafter usable. If this is the case, a cleric could cast Cure Light wounds into the ring, and a Bard wearer could then use this spell, while a sorcerer could not. A Wizard could recall the spell from the ring, but could not prepare it.4) Check. Wizards can only use the ring to quickly prepare spells.6) Only the class spell list(s) the spell appears on is important.7) Except for the caveat above. Resove the ambiguity this way for play balance.8)It's probably simpler to assume that the method of storing spells is not dependent on who the wearer is, so that a bard can store spells in the ring for a wizard's use as well as the other way around.  I think it's both. Wizards have the option to decide which spells are in the ring during daily preparation. All spell casters can cast spells into the ring, and this is the only option sorcerers and other spontaneous casters have, since that's the prescibed method of placing spells into the ring for them. This is a really neat idea that just needed more follow-through on the part of the writers.</blockquote>
