SPOTIFY SPINS OUT ITS STATIONS

Spotify has rolled out its new Stations app— the streaming service’s Pandora-esque light streaming offering—in the U.S. The app made its official debut for Android users in Australia last year and has since become available to iOS users in the last month.

The Stations app acts as more of an extension to Spotify rather than a standalone service; features such as Discover Weekly and Release Radar remain. But it furnishes a passive listening experience while enabling music discovery.

The app also features a range of top playlists by genre, decade, activity and more. Free-tier users can still thumbs-up and down songs, but they can’t skip tracks—and must still hear ads. Premium users, however, will get unlimited skips and ad-free listening. One feature that sets the Stations app aside from Pandora is its ability to save tracks you’ve liked into your Spotify library straight from the app, allowing cross-usage.
