    Integra Now Available With Spotify In The U.S.



    By Gary Reber

    Integra is pleased to announce that award-winning digital music service Spotify is now available through its entire line of network home theater receivers in the US.

    Over a million Spotify Premium subscribers in seven countries (UK, France, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Netherlands, and Norway) already use Spotify to expand their musical horizons. Now they will also be able to listen to the service via their Integra home entertainment equipment in the United States.

    Spotify is simple and intuitive to operate via the television screen connected to Integra home theater receivers. With a few simple clicks on your remote control you’re given quick,scrolling onscreen access to your own and collaborative playlists as well as Spotify’s 'What's New?' and 'Starred' features. Album cover art is displayed onscreen and subscribers can explore further to browse artists, albums and tracks.

    A soon-to-be-released firmware update will enable Integra’s 2011 receivers to support Spotify. Forthcoming products from Integra will also be capable of supporting the Spotify service. A Spotify Premium account and a network connection is all you need to enjoy Spotify on your Integra products.

    The addition of Spotify offers Premium subscribers instant access to one of the world’s biggest music libraries in excellent sound quality, courtesy of Integra’s seamless integration of Spotify’s high quality streaming.

    Reason #55 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it has had a consistent editorial perspective since its inception: a no-compromise approach to making home theatre the best that it can be. I have read the magazine cover to cover since Issue 2. Despite staff and reviewer changes over the years, thanks to Gary's leadership this perspective has never changed. As new technologies are introduced, Widescreen Review always provides in-depth analyses of not just the technology itself, but the political and industry forces that may be forcing compromises in its development. You have always sounded the clarion call to stop compression madness or any other madness that may force us to accept a home theatre experience that falls short of what it could be. Thank you!
