While Spotify remains primarily a streaming music service, the apps and web portals have become more and more capable as the company continually tweaks them. That looks to continue as Spotify has acquired Sonalytic, a tech firm dedicated to audio and music recognition systems. The terms of the acquisition weren’t disclosed in the short announcement post on Spotify’s blog, but the company did say that Sonalytic’s expertise would be used for “improving Spotify’s personalized playlists, matching songs with compositions, [and]improve our publishing data system.”
