Spotify is taking the next step in its effort to become a video platform, announcing on Tuesday (October 15) that it’s expanding music video streaming to 85 new markets.
Spotify didn’t specify which countries or regions are included in the rollout, but noted that the new offer is available only to Premium subscribers, and comes with “a limited catalog of music videos.”
The Sweden-headquartered company initially announced the launch of music videos in beta back in March, when it offered the service in 11 countries – the UK, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Brazil, Colombia, the Philippines, Indonesia and Kenya. It later added Egypt to the list.
The US is not on the list of new markets, the Verge reports.
“As with all of our features, availability can vary across markets and tiers,” a Spotify spokesperson said in a statement to The Verge.
“Music videos on Spotify are still in beta and we look forward to bringing it to even more users across more markets, including the US, in the future.”
