Here's an article I read about Spotify last September, a little dated I know but a very interesting read:

And an updated article from the BBC:

I find it interesting that Spotify have 10 millions registered users from UK, Finland, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, France and Spain but 9.5 million listen to the service for free with only 500,000 paying for the service.
As you said a little dated. At last count there were one million paying subscribers.
