Spotify To Get Mobile And Get To U.S.

Online music service Spotify is hoping to launch a mobile version and expand to the US by the end of the year.

The streaming service, which lets fans listen to more than three million tracks legally and for free, has gained more than a million users in the UK. Spotify was
created in Sweden and is available in the UK, Norway, Finland, France and Spain.



Speaking about the plan to go mobile, Spotify founder Daniel Ek said: "We want to be everywhere. We won't only do one device."
