Spotify Surpasses 60M Paid Subscribers, Now Adding 2M Per Month

Spotify has confirmed that it has surpassed 60 million subscribers. That's up from 40 million paid in March of this year; and means that the worlds top music streamer is adding an impressive 2 million paid users per month. As of June, Spotify's active users - both paid and free ad-supported - totalled 140 million.

This jump in subscriptions comes as Spotify is preparing to enter the public stock market; and at a time when new deals with the major labels incentivize the streamer to shift more users from free to paid.  Today's stats offers good news towards both goals.

Spotify is currently available in 60 countries.
