Spotify users can listen freely to over 40 million tracks, including Japanese songs. The free version has ads and reduced functionality, while the premium version—costing ¥980 per month—provides high quality songs without commercials. Like in other markets, the service recommends tracks and playlists to users based on their playback history; as a special feature for Japan, users can display lyrics on the screen while songs are playing. Official Spotify playlists include Tokyo Rising, which introduces Japanese artists to the world.
