Spotify headed to PS3 and PS4

4.7
Music service Spotify is coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 this spring, but the best part is you'll be able to have your songs playing in the background while gaming. The PlayStation Blog also mentions that folks will be able to sign up to the service using their PlayStation Network ID.

The Spotify service will be available in 41 markets. With that said, prior to the launch of Spotify, Sony's Music Unlimited service will close in all 19 countries on March 29, 2015. Sony mentions, "Nearly all of these countries will be among the 41 markets where PlayStation Music featuring Spotify will be available at launch, including the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Brazil."

Spotify is an ad-supported music service in its free version, with premium options beginning at $10 monthly. The company also recently added family plans for multiple users. This is a very cool addition to PlayStation for Spotify's 15 million paying subscribers and over 60 million active users.

Pryzel Very jealous of PS users now, hopefully xbox can get this added soon soon enough.


360 I think already has it just XB1 now. Even though you can just snap like YouTube, playing music in the background would be awesome.

Well i like the idea since i use spotify for all my music this is great.

DeluxeHazard I still don't see the point of playing music from your console when almost anybody who owns a console owns a smart phone that supports music.


I'd rather play through the TV than smartphone speakers.

If you connect the phone to a bluetooth speaker though, I completely agree

Grimlock sounds pretty nice, but paying for music when you can just download it to your computer and hear it from there.


That's true but the idea is too game and listen to music at the same time, Although you could do this on your laptop/computer/phone, it's still a good idea and spotify is a good program tbf
