Spotify, a streaming music service that’s huge in Europe, but hasn’t hit the US just yet, now has apps for both iPhone and Android. Despite some worries that Apple wouldn’t approve an app from such a direct iTunes Music Store competitor, Spotify is in the app store and available for download, although you won’t be to use it unless you’re a premium subscriber of the service. Download Squad took a look at the iPhone app’s features back when it was first announced.

When Spotify arrives in the US with mobile apps in place, we’ll get a chance to see whether a really well-done subscription service can draw customers away from the iTunes/Amazon pay-per-download model. Spotify’s offline mode means that your music is available even when you don’t have an Internet connection, and, while an iPod or iPhone might store thousands of songs, a subscription to Spotify means you can take their entire library with you. I’m predicting Spotify’s going to make a big splash when it hits this side of the Atlantic.
