Spotify and Uber team up for in-car streaming music

This article is about customers of smartphone taxi app Uber will soon be able to stream music from Spotify during rides, after the two companies announced a partnership.

• Uber users who link their Spotify account to their Uber account can basically push a button and get a ride, and get into the car, and in the car their Spotify music, their Spotify station is playing
• The feature will be available in 10 cities: London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Nashville, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Stockholm, Sydney and Toronto
• Spotify and Uber are holding launch parties on Friday 21 November in those cities, featuring artists including Andrew WK, Professor Green and Diplo.
• News of the partnership had leaked out over the weekend, after Uber sent invitations to journalists promising “a first-of-its-kind partnership”, complete with an illustration of musical notes.

I don't know if this is going to work as much as Uber and Spotify hope for because not everyone has spotify but Spotify is the leading company when it comes to streaming music .Youtube's new streaming music system comes out (Youtube Key), is this going to work? How would this make artists feel as people use stream to listen favourite songs instead of the radio as new artists produce new music and put on radio.
