NICE!!! now i can listen to music while being on my headset for clan nights without it coming through the mic.
Sony has confirmed that Spotify is coming to phones and consoles from Spring 2015.
The new music service - dubbed PlayStation Music - will partner with
Spotify to bring the service to 41 territories, including North and
South America, Europe, Asia and more.
PlayStation Music - purported to be “deeply integrated” and offer
"exclusive benefits" to users - will bring more than 30 million songs
and 1.5 billion playlists to your PlayStation 3 and 4 consoles, as well
as Xperia smartphones and tablets.
PlayStation 4 players will also be able to simultaneously use Spotify
and play games, enabling you to “soundtrack [your] gaming sessions”.
“Music is a core component of the entertainment offering that
consumers expect from Sony,” said Sony’s Andrew House, “and our goal
with PlayStation Music is to provide the most compelling music
experiences to the millions of PlayStation Network users around the
world.”
"This partnership represents the best in music and the best in gaming
coming together, which will benefit the vibrant and passionate
communities of both Spotify and PlayStation Network. We’re thrilled to
make Spotify the foundation of our strategy with PlayStation Music.“
As you’ll be able to link directly to your Spotify account from your
device, you’ll also be able to subscribe to Spotify Premium via your PSN
wallet.
As a consequence, Sony’s present Music Unlimited service
will cease operations across all 19 countries on March 29 2015, but
"nearly all” of the countries served by Music Unlimited will be replaced
by the new PlayStation Music. Those of you with an active Music
Unlimited subscription on February 28 will receive up to 30 days of free
access to Music Unlimited until it closes on March 29, after which you
may be offered an introductory Spotify Premium trial.
As it’s currently unclear if you’ll need to be a Plus subscriber to
access the service, we’ve reached out to Sony and will confirm just as
soon as we know more.
