Spotify

Spoticast users are in for a treat with the latest update to the third-party Spotify app, which adds a new discography view alongside a handful of Xbox tweaks.

Spotify has received its first update since March and once again it supposedly feels faster and has an improved UI. Actual results may vary.

Spoticast, a relatively new Spotify app from the makers of Tubecast, has received its first update, bringing the ability to switch between audio and video formats and more.

Breaking further from its musical roots, Spotify is planning to venture into deeper into video with a slate of original shows.

Contrary to recent reports, Spotify isn't going anywhere. Should you be rocking Windows Phone 8.1 or Windows, you'll be supported with future updates.

Spotify has confirmed to one of its customers it has quietly ended support for its Windows Phone app. The company says that the current app is still usable but no more updates will be released.

Spotify continues to launch and refine features to better position the service against alternative services. The company will release a new feature to help streamers discover new music each week.

Alas, Beats Music, we hardly knew ye. The music subscription service that did support Windows Phone has been canned by Apple to be replaced by one that does not. As of June 30, Beats goes away.
