For all of you cheapskates (like me) (well, actually a burnt a friends copy but) who held off buying Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto in the vain glorious hope that Spotify will eventual get it for you… guess what? YOU'RE RIGHT!!! They WILL!!! IT SHALL!!!
According to gigwise who got this off Businessweek, Coldplay's manager Dave Holmes said: "Like all Coldplay albums, it will eventually show up on Spotify."
Hmmmmm. In the same gigwise post, an EMI rep said this: "Services such as Spotify are currently generating more revenue per user to EMI and our artists than the average digital music consumer generated in a world without these services."
Sure seems like a lot of qualifiers there, but really, suddenly back catalogues are being streamed like hot cakes, right?Anyway Holmes should go hang out with Guinness and they can grumble their lives away and leave us to do the listening.
