Spotify Launches Support for Music Video Streaming
Spotify now has a music video feature that’s supported on iOS, Android, desktop, and TV devices. The music video option became available on March 13 with a limited video catalog for Spotify Premium users in 11 markets.
In Spotify’s official announcement, it says the music video feature will be available in the U.K., Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Brazil, Colombia, Philippines, Indonesia, and Kenya. No timeline has been given yet for when other markets can expect this feature.
Spotify also said this is a beta version “with a limited catalog of music videos, including hits from artists like Ed Sheeran, Doja Cat, Ice Spice, and Aluna and Asake.”
Spotify already supports video podcasts and a “Canvas mode” that plays short looping visuals with tracks in the backgrounds. It’s introducing the music video feature as “another way to enhance the artist-to-fan connection.”
Users can select “Switch to Video” for supported music tracks and can switch back to audio-only at any time by selecting “Switch to Audio” in the app interface.
