Spotify still grew despite Joe Rogan boycotts and Russia closure
 

Spotify has managed to grow despite a high-profile rebellion over its backing of controversial podcaster Joe Rogan, and broader market fallout from the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The streaming giant today released updated financial results for the first quarter of 2022, revealing that it grew to 422 million monthly users. 182 million of which pay for Premium, with its stable of exclusive podcasts a big draw and one that Spotify is continually investing in. The company added that three million of that total user figure may have been added as a consequence of a log-in issue, but even taking that into account, growth was still above expectations.
