Spotify iPhone app is APPROVED
Greetings All,
I’ve just heard from a source close to Apple that The Spotify iPhone app has been approved.
It’s just going through the final publication processes & will be available to download from Next week.
The iPhone app is a fantastic piece of work, but is only available for Spotify Premium subscribers.
Given the huge amount of fans Spotify has, I can imagine that their number of subscribers will see a significant hike due to this.
On the off chance you haven’t already seen it, here’s the official demo video :-
Enjoy!!

Every time I read something on a blog about Apple, it’s always from someone with apparent links to ‘a source close to Apple’ or an Apple ‘Insider’.
All I can say is that there must be a hell of a lot of people with friends who not only work for Apple, but who all work in the specific departments that know all about whats going on.
It’s really, realy difficult to take such news with anything other than a pinch of salt. We never know who’s telling the truth and giving reliable information, or who is spinning porkies.
That said, I do hope it’s true – as do loads of us. But I’ll never, not ever, rely upon Apple doing something that’s actually for us, the consumers. They are too wrapped up in their own form of self-importance and control freakery.
And it realy pisses me off – big time – that I’m at their mercy when it comes to actually doing useful stuff with MY equipment that I’ve bought and paid for outright.
I wish Spotify luck. I’ll be right there with them on the premium service if they’ve managed to get this through.

Daniel Ek has said that as far as he knows, this is just an “interesting rumour”.
But y’know, I hope you know more than he does. Because I’m stoked.

Hope you’re right on this mate! It’s spreading round twitter so fast you’re going to have half the blogosphere after your head if you’re wrong
