Spotify. The elusive European streaming music startup that you just can’t get access to in the U.S., unless you know someone or jump through a few hoops.

The U.S. launch has been delayed over aggressive negotiations with the labels over the price users will pay in the U.S. Spotify insists on free, the labels want to move away from that model entirely.

We’ve heard that a compromise has been reached. Spotify will be free for users, but a “very limited” number of people will be able to use it.

You Americans maybe able to enjoy the best music service, in the world ever, soon. Fingers crossed for you.
