Last month we were all very excited when the guys at Spotify told us they had submitted their iPhone app to Apple and gave us a sneak peek [video after the jump]. Well yesterday, news broke out that the app has been approved and is ready to hit the App Store.
There were concerns that Apple may discard the Spotify app as it might lure music fans away from iTunes, but CEO Daniel Ek assured everyone that they had a good relationship with Apple; “We’ve a great relationship with Apple, think the iPhone is awesome and absolutely expect them to approve the app in the next few weeks.” He said.
As we’ve discussed before, the mobile app will only be available to premium users who pay €10 a month.
Now that the iPhone app has been passed Spotify can crack on with its launch in the U.S..
