SPOTIFY LAUNCHES IN AUSTRALIA

AUSTRALIAN SPOTIFY MANAGING DIRECTOR FAILS IN TRIPLE J GRILLING

In an embarrassing (for Spotify) grilling yesterday Triple J reporter Sophie McNeil (champion) took the gloves off in order to get a straight forward answer from Austalian Spotify Managing Director Kate Vale, in regards to how Spotify benefits artists.

In a cringe worthy exchange Vale failed to answer any of McNeil's questions succinctly and single handedly created a PR nightmare for Spotify on it's first day of business in Australia. Check out the full interview by clicking the link. It's an absolute eye opener and a must read if you are interested about the viability of the music industry for musicians in 2012 and the future. http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/permalink/2012/120522grilled
