Spotify launching in the US tomorrow

We just received word from a Spotify representative that the much-loved music streaming service is finally coming to the US tomorrow. Asked about the final hurdles leading up to release, the representative told Engadget, "We were really adamant about bringing the service to the US, which means a really great, free experience, and we wanted to be really careful about the way we did this, and the rights holders felt the same way. It took some time, but we're absolutely thrilled that all four major labels and a ton of indies are behind us, and we'll be bringing that Spotify experience to the US tomorrow." The representative would not announce a time for launch, but did tell us that the service will offer three pricing plans, including the free, ad-supported version that made the service such a hit in its native Europe.
