Spotify Adds Millionth Member in Five Months

SpotifyAndres from Spotify writes on their blog that Spotify has reached one million registered members. Considering Spotify was launched last October, it can be said to have grown with incredible speed. On average, the service has grown by 200 000 members a month or about 6600 members a day.

Spotify has been a media favorite – including ours’, but the users love the service as well despite some of the shortcomings. A true viral service. Nevertheless, Spotify is well on its way to reshaping the music industry. It has to be said that it is ironic – Spotify is reshaping the music industry based on the exact technology that is behind the most notorious filesharing site in the world The Pirate Bay (and they both come from Sweden!) that is being sued by the very same industry (among others).
