Uphill struggle for US domination

Written by Editor | Published on July 19, 2009

There’s still a long way to go, say Forbes:

[A]nalysts believe Spotify’s success in the U.S. is far from a shoo-in.Spotify has signed deals with record companies in Europe but it now has to do the same all over again in the U.S. Artists usually license their rights to one record company for the North American market and to another for Europe and the rest of the world. So now Spotify has to renegotiate all the deals. It has already spoken to the major labels, but it hasn’t signed a single deal yet.

Surely success in Europe will mean US labels will be more than willing?
