Spotify Launches in Indonesia – Survey Report

Last month, Spotify was officially launched in Indonesia. It is a commercial music streaming, podcast and video service that provides digital rights management-protected content from record labels and media companies. As of June 2015, Spotify had more than 75 million active users, including about 20 million paid users. Just before its launch in Indonesia, the amount of paid subscribers reached 30 million in March 2016. Therefore we wonder, with its worldwide popularity and all, what do Indonesians think of Spotify? Regarding to this matter, recently Jakpat has conducted a survey in order to see people’s opinion toward Spotify’s launching in Indonesia. This survey involved 1507 respondents from across Indonesia. For the further notes, Jakpat’s respondents in this survey are Indonesian smart-phone users, with a range of age from 16 to 48 year-old.
