"This is a hugely significant day in Spotify's short history," said Gustav Söderström, director of portable solutions at Spotify. "Since our launch last October, we’ve worked hard to provide our users with a high quality service that gives them access to whatever music they want, whenever they want it."

"The launch of the Spotify App for iPhone and iPod touch now provides our users with the best of both the online and offline worlds, making it even easier for users to listen to all the world's music, anywhere on the planet"
