MUMBAI: Spotify has announced that its mobile phone app is now available on the Symbian platform, offering up the music streaming service to a whole host of Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung handsets alongside the existing iPhone and Android versions.

The service allows users unlimited music streaming on your mobile phone, as long as they have a premium account with Spotify, and that thay are on a fixed data plan which allows them WiFi or 2.5/3Ginternet access.

There are 21 Nokia handsets that will be compatible with the Spotify applications. Interestingly, a number of these (including the 5320, 5530 and 5800 XpressMusic phones) already use the Comes With Music service – Nokia's own music-streaming application.

Other phones which can now access Spotify include the Sony Ericsson Satio and two Samsung devices: the GT-I7110 and i8910 Omnia HD.

"Today we're delighted to announce the launch of Spotify for Symbian," says Spotify on its website.

"Symbian is the operating system used by a number of smartphones including Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung… We hope everyone enjoys this early Christmas present!"
