Spotify and Uber Team Up
Streaming service Spotify and car service Uber have announced a partnership, allowing users to listen to music from their Spotify accounts over the stereo on Uber rides.
The basic setup is this: Customers connect their Spotify account to the Uber app, request a ride, and get matched to Spotify-enabled Ubers. The driver pulls up, the customer hops in, and from there, they’ll be able to play music from the customer’s Spotify account inside the vehicle.
(One catch: You’ll need a Spotify Premium account. Sorry, freeloaders.) Uber will also have their own curated Spotify playlists, if you don’t have your own music already picked out.
The service will launch on November 21 in ten cities: New York, London, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Mexico City, Nashville, Singapore, Stockholm, and Sydney. Artists such as Diplo, Kevin Drew, Andrew W.K., Matt and Kim, and more will participate in live sessions and ride-alongs in some of these cities.
(That could be fun, or terrifying—imagine having to make non-awkward conversation with Diplo for the entirety of a cab ride.)
Below, watch a demo video of how the service works.

Disclosure Deny Involvement in New “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”
A representative for Disclosure has denied the group’s involvement in the new recording of “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”, the superstar charity single released today by Band Aid 30. A reported remix has also been disavowed. “No planned remix or involvement of any kind unfortunately,” the representative said.
The Band Aid 30 website listed Disclosure as one of the participating artists as recently as this morning, though they have since been removed. They were also included in press materials for the single.
“Do They Know It’s Christmas?” was originally recorded in 1984 to spread awareness of the famine in Ethiopia, and subsequently revisited in 1989 and 2004. The latest version benefits organizations fighting Ebola.
Watch the video, featuring Jessie Ware, Robert Plant, Bono, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Sam Smith, Queen drummer Roger Taylor, Ellie Goulding, Underworld, Sinead O’Connor, Bastille, Ed Sheeran, One Direction, Elbow, and more:
