Spotify has revealed to its selected American test users that the popular European streaming music service will debut in the States in "the coming months." All Things Digital has printed an email sent out to people with a "promotional test account in the USA." In the email, the company says, "We are really looking forward to launching the service in full in the USA over the coming months, and hope that you will continue to use the service and be one of our key advocates."
The email goes on to ask its beta testers to sign up for an eventual paid account for when Spotify launches here. All Things Digital's sources say that approximately a million Americans are testing Spotify for free currently.
Yesterday, Warner Music Group Chairman Edgar Bronfman Jr. endorsed Spotify, saying that licensing revenue from it and other streaming services will be an "immediate source of growth" for the record label in 2011.
