AT&T Wireless Top-Tier Customers Now Getting Spotify for Free

Beginning Tuesday, AT&T Wireless Unlimited & More Premium customers can choose a Spotify Premium subscription from one of seven entertainment options, for no extra charge, said the companies Monday. Other select AT&T customers can sign up for a six-month free trial of the Premium music streaming service in the beginning of an “ongoing collaboration" between the two companies, they said. It’s the latest pairing of streaming content companies and mobile operators, as smartphone upgrades have stretched out: Verizon and Google announced a partnership in April (see 1904230059) for free access to YouTube TV, and in January, Verizon announced a free Apple Music account for customers in its top two subscriber tiers (see 1901160010).
