April 29 (UPI) -- Spotify said Monday it has surpassed the 100 million-user mark for its premium subscription service, becoming the first digital music service to do so.
Spotify Premium has more than tripled its subscriber base since the first quarter of 2016 when it had 30 million users, the company said. By contrast, Apple Music has 50 million subscribers worldwide -- but 28 million in the United States, compared to 26 million for Spotify.
