Spotify has a huge presence in the United States, but how does that compare with competitors like Apple Music.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

New numbers reveal that Spotify<\/a> has over half a million paying subscribers in the US. That’s according to data revealed to Digital Music News<\/a>. The royalty data revealed by a “major publisher” told that Spotify has roughly 50 million subscribers in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Possibly their most direct competitor, Apple Music<\/a>, was revealed to have nearly 34 million. However, whilst Spotify might have more numbers than Apple Music they show how Apple Music might actually be winning in terms of value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spotify is largely subscribed to in bundles, like their Duo and Premium tiers which allow multiple users under one, discounted payment. When it comes to individual subscriptions, Spotify actually only has 20.2 million. Apple Music just beats them out with 20.8 million individual subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth noting that the 50 million unit does not necessarily mean the number of people using Spotify Premium in the US. The count includes the number of Duo and Family subscriptions, but not the number of individuals that are using that plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
