The Spotify app for iPads is here now. Spotify is also giving users free premium status for a couple of days. Beyond that, you can continue with a 0ne-month extension of Spotify Premium for free.

Features of the Spotify app include:

  • Retina graphics for iPad
  • Access to Spotify’s entire 18 million song catalogue
  • ‘Now Playing’ full-screen view with high-definition cover art
  • Inbox grouped by user for easy searching
  • Gapless playback and crossfade
  • AirPlay integration
