"...it will only be available for Facebook users in countries where Spotify has a presence, excluding the all-important United States."

I guess I assumed since Facebook is based in the US this meant that Spotify would be available in the US too, but on second thought, I'm sure Facebook is big everywhere.



...but on second thought, I'm sure Facebook is big everywhere.

According to this website (http://www.nickburcher.com/2011/04/facebook-usage-statistics...) the US has 150 million, out of 600 million active facebook users (according to wiki), which puts it at about 25% of facebook's total share.


Which coincides with Europe, who also has 150 million Facebook users according to the same wiki.


But the countries where Spotify is available only make up for 200 million people, out of 730 in Europe.
