Spotify Technology SA, the music streaming giant, is ending production of several live audio shows, pulling back from a once-promising programming area.
Deux Me After Dark, Doughboys: Snack Pack,
The Movie Buff from comedian Jon Gabrus,
and A Gay in the Life have all ended their runs or announced they will do so,
according to a Spotify spokesperson.
However, shows like The Fantasy Footballers
and The Ringer MMA Show would continue to operate their accompanying live audio
offerings, as per the report.
In April, the Swedish audio service had
integrated its live audio capabilities from its companion app, Spotify
Greenroom, into its main app itself.
Greenroom was formerly known as Locker
Room, which Spotify acquired in March 2021 after its $62 million purchase of
its parent company, Betty Labs.
The company recently announced the rollout of
a new rewards programme in India, offering users access to its Spotify Mini
Premium plan for a week at a discounted price.
After using Spotify Premium Mini for ten
days, the music streaming service will reward users, allowing them to purchase
the plan for one week at lower price, instead of the original price, according
to the company.
Back in August, the audio streaming service
had completely separated its play and shuffle buttons, though the feature was
only made available for its Premium subscribers.
"This new change will allow you to
choose the mode you prefer at the top of playlists and albums and listen the
way you want to. Whether you love the joy of the unexpected with Shuffle mode
or prefer listening to tunes in order by simply pressing Play, Spotify has you
covered," Spotify wrote on its blog.
