MacDailyNews Take: Spotify is a poor man’s Apple Music. “But yesterday came news that the company has been sued for $1.6 billion for copyright infringement.” “All indications are that Spotify wants to list in Q1, and timing of the confidential F-1 filing would support such a calendar,” Primack reports. “If successful, it could change how some tech companies go public.” “Spotify is pursuing a direct listing instead of a traditional float, causing both Silicon Valley and Wall Street to pay very close attention,” Primack reports. So keep that in mind before you download and install this pre-release version of the software.įor those with an Apple silicon Mac, this should be welcomed news if they use Spotify on the desktop.“Music streaming giant Spotify confidentially filed IPO documents with the SEC at the end of December, Axios has learned from multiple sources,” Dan Primack reports for Axios. Of course, Spotify does say that some unexpected behavior from the app may pop up, considering it’s a beta. If you want to try it out, you can do so here. The beta version of the Mac desktop app is free to download and install. And if everything works great we’d love to hear that too! Please note that as a Beta, some unexpected behavior might still occur. We’ll use all the feedback and info we get from you to tweak and improve your Spotify experience. It features many compatibility improvements and optimizations for the new Apple architecture.
We have been working hard backstage on this and are happy to announce that we now have a Beta version of our app available. However, Spotify does say in its official update that if anyone does try out the beta version of the desktop app, feedback would be greatly appreciated. There’s no telling when that update will arrive, at least right now.
This is just a test phase for the full rollout of the updated Spotify desktop app at a future date. Now, on July 1, Spotify says that the beta version of its desktop app now offers “many compatibility improvements and optimizations for the new Apple architecture.” That was submitted on November 11 of last year. Today, Spotify updated a post on its community forum (via MacRumors), initially meant to request a feature supporting Apple’s latest chips. But it looks like that will be changing soon. However, the official, public version doesn’t natively support Apple’s new chip architecture right now. Technically speaking, Spotify users who upgraded their computer to a Mac outfitted with Apple’s custom M1 processor didn’t lose support for the music streaming service’s desktop app.
