Washington, Jan 13 : Spotify has said that over 15 million customers now pay for its premium music subscription service.

The company also said in a blog post that it now tallies 60 million active listeners which means that users are still tuning in to the free, ad-sponsored tier that artists like, Taylor Swift disapprove of, reported The Verge.

The last time Spotify revealed its user count in November, it had just crossed 12.5 million paying customers.

The latest figures show that the company has witnessed strong growth in the past months. (ANI)
