Spotify launches Symbian app


Spotify, the music-streaming service, is now available on Nokia handsets and other Symbian-based devices.
It means that users of many Nokia phones, as well as some high-end Samsung and Sony Ericsson handsets, such as the Omnia HD and Satio, will be able to stream their favourite songs to their device, or cache tracks to listen to offline.
The move hugely increases Spotify's potential reach. Users of the Apple iPhone and Google Android devices are already able to use the service, but around half of all smartphones run the Symbian operating system.
Users will need to sign up to the £9.99 per month Premium subscription to use the service. Once they have downloaded the Spotify app on to their device, they can choose from millions of tracks to build playlists of their favourite songs, and listen to music while sending a text, writing an email or browsing the web.
A user's mobile Spotify account will synchronise with the Spotify account on their computer or laptop, meaning that any playlist changes or new songs added on the mobile version will automatically be carried across on to the desktop version.
"The launch of Spotify's Symbian app opens up our mobile music service to potentially millions more music fans across Europe," said Gustav Söderström, director of portable solutions at Spotify. "This takes our mobile music offering to a totally new level.”
Spotify's music-streaming service is available in six European countries, and the company has announced plans to roll-out the service in both the US and China next year. Read More......
