Spotify sets sights on 'all the world's music'
By Chris Lefkow (AFP) – 10 hours ago
Ek said Spotify has been met with overwhelming interest in the United States despite being available by invitation-only for now.
The invitation-only launch proved to be a good idea "otherwise our service would have crumbled from the sheer amount of people who wanted to get access," he said.
Ek said the "vast majority" of Spotify's revenue goes to artists and rightholders and declined to say if the company was profitable.
"We don't really focus on profitability, we're focused on growth," he said.
