Spotify now has over 750,000 paying subscribers. Shakil Khan, head of special projects for Spotify, just announced the numbers via Twitter. Back in March this year that figure sat at 320,000, meaning the number of people paying for premium Spotify services has almost doubled in the last nine months. With news that Spotify US could be just around the corner, it could be all change for Spotify in the months to come.

SeeSaw, the on demand online catch-up TV service that streams content through your browser, is going premium from tomorrow. It’ll be available for 99p until the end of the year, and after that, will be £2.99 per month. This goes along with the news that SeeSaw will be introducing Ad Selector, which allows you to pick what type of adverts you’re shown when watching content through SeeSaw.
