Why Is This News ? Live NYE Spotify US Launch Countdown Edition!

It's fair to say that, of all of the writers at TechCrunch, we're the ones who have been most skeptical about Swedish music startup (and newly-minted verb) Spotify. And for what reason? Because the company lied to us on multiple occasions? Because they routinely brief journalists with off the record half-truths, and then later deny those same reports? Because CEO Daniel Ek (pronounced "Eek" - he's Swedish) still refuses to go on the record with us? Sure, those are all good reasons. But really our most consistant beef with Spotify has been the company's inability to launch in the US, despite briefing reporters for the past TWO YEARS that such a launch is imminent.
