It wasn’t the best-kept secret, but Spotify has confirmed (update: the blog post has now been pulled) a tie-up with Uber that lets you choose the music you hear during your ride.
Now, when you book a car, the vehicle can show up with your favorite tunes already blaring out the speakers when you sit down.
It will be launching in compatible cars starting from November 21, in 10 cities initially – London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Mexico City, Nashville, Singapore, Stockholm, Toronto and Sydney. Following this, the service will be landing in other markets in the weeks that follow.
To use the service, you’ll need to hook up your Spotify account to your Uber profile and, if you’re lucky enough to be allocated a car that’s Spotify-enabled, you can be control the virtual steels of wheel and ensure you no longer have to endure the driver’s questionable taste in tunes.
It looks like Spotify has revealed the official news a little earlier than planned, give its announcement post has now been pulled. Uber CEO Travis Kalanick is hosting a global press call at 3PM GMT today, where it’s expected he’ll reveal more details of the partnership.
