In an announcement today, Spotify provides all Windows Phone owners access to millions of songs across their smartphones for free. Listen to all your playlists, discover new music, or simply sit back and dig into your favourite artist’s entire back catalogue.
There is one limitation though – only shuffle play is avaliable. A limitation I rather concider a bonus feature as friends and family no longer have any reason to hijack my phone during playback to change the current tune to a personal favorite.
According to the press release, todays update for Windows Phone provides Spotify’s free mobile experience lets you shuffle play:
- All of the music. Listen to all the playlists you’ve created and playlists from the people you follow. Spotify lets you discover new music, save, shuffle and share.
- Your favourite artists. Want to listen to a certain artist? Just hit shuffle play, sit back and listen to their entire catalogue.
In addition they have improved the app where search results returns better, and it’s easier to browse artists you love and discover related artists you might find interesting.
Spotify is available to Windows Phone 8 and 8.1, and can be downloaded in the Windows Phone Store.
