Spotify brings video learning courses (UK only for now)

Spotify's on a mission to become your all-in-one content hub, and their latest addition is video-based learning courses (currently a UK exclusive). Partnering with education tech companies like BBC Maestro and Skillshare, they're offering courses across various categories—think making music, mastering business skills, or getting creative.

These courses seamlessly integrate alongside your existing music, podcasts, and audiobooks. Plus, you can try at least two lessons per course for free, regardless of your subscription tier (free or premium). There's a catch, though—buying access to these courses happens on the desktop app to avoid app store commission fees.

This move aligns with Spotify's data—nearly half their premium users tap into educational podcasts. It seems they're betting big on becoming your one-stop shop for both entertainment and self-improvement.
