Spotify launches Greenroom
Spotify launched their “Clubhouse" competitor called Greenroom recently on IOS and Android devices. This is Spotify’s entrance into this discussion-based type of social media, which was especially brought to the limelight when Clubhouse was released.
Greenroom will allow users to create rooms and host live discussions regarding sports, music, politics, culture and other topics of interest. The app also lets users record their discussions to be able to convert them into podcasts.
Greenroom is built from Locker Room, which Spotify acquired this past month.
Unlike a lot of Spotify owned products, Spotify made this release very quiet. Many insiders speculate that Greenroom may be acting as a beta platform, and Spotify eventually intends to put the best features into the main Spotify app itself.
Spotify is currently in the works creating exclusive deals with creators to appear on Greenroom, which will most likely be announced later in the summer.
