Spotify has cancelled its plans to launch in Russia


This article is about how Spotify abandons their plans to launch in Russia. However the CEO stated that it may happen in the near future. spotify is a great service which provides great music and could be a hit in Russia. 


  • Kubaneishvili wrote: “I regret to inform you that Spotify refused to launch in Russia in the foreseeable future. There are several reasons – the economic crisis, the political situation, the new laws governing the internet.”
  • His statement that the move was for the “foreseeable future” suggests the Swedish company may revisit its decision should economic and political conditions change.
I think this will be great for Russian this service, however I don't understand why they will pull out as this will only effect the companies profits.
