Still runner up: While 10 million subscribers is nothing to sniff at, Apple Music is still playing second fiddle to Spotify, which allegedly boasts more than double that number of subscribers.
LOS ANGELES: Apple’s music service continues to grow at a healthy pace: Apple Music has reached 36 million subscribers worldwide, an Apple spokesperson confirmed to Variety. However, Spotify’s paying subscriber base is still nearly twice as large.
Apple had officially announced last June that Apple Music had reached 27 million subscribers. Three months later, word got out that the service had surpassed 30 million subs.
