Spotify music streaming now free on iPhone and iPad

Afterthere are rumors
a few days
, the news is now official. It's a change
important who has just intervened on the functioning of the streaming service
musical Spotify.

Indeed, if listening with advertising was already free on computer,
use on iPhone and iPad required a so-called monthly subscription
"Premium". From now on, the service is open to everyone via the application
Spotify.

Like iTunes Radio, available in the US only, listening is
financed by advertising, without time limit. But all functions
of the premium model (10 euros per month) are not available. The user has
access to the entire catalog in random mode ("Shuffle"), via channels and via
your own playlists or by choosing from 1.5 billion playlists
already created. However, it is not possible to search for a title or a
artist and listen to it directly.

In parallel with this important change, which could encourage the competitor
Deezer (appli
ici
) to do the same, Spotify is rolling out to twenty new countries,
mainly in Latin America, bringing the total countries covered to
55.

For those who don't know, this may be an opportunity to
tester :

The first month is free, don't be surprised if you have
more functions than advertised!
