Spotify, a free application for the iPhone and iPod touch, has recently received a great update. Now, users of the app can enjoy a brand new design - along with a variety of other improvements. While the service is not yet available in the U.S., our international readers will undoubtedly appreciate this update.
Over here in the U.K., Spotify is huge: The music service, which can be enjoyed in a free ad-supported version, has a place on everyone's computer. However, if you pay £9.99/month (for a Premium account), you can take advantage of Spotify's application for the iPhone and iPod touch. Now, Spotify has been updated (0.4.11), and has a new design and color scheme. A complete list of new features is provided by Spotify, Ltd. in the app's release notes:As mentioned, Spotify is free to download (in the U.K., France, Spain, Finland, Norway, Sweden, and the Netherlands), and can only be used with a Premium account. If you're a fan of the online music streaming service, check out the updated app and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
