This morning Spotify shared new users stats. The music streamer added 1 million paying subscribers for a new total of 6 million, or 25% of 24 million current active users. That's impressive growth – faster it appears than it's competitors, but still far from enough to allow the company to turn a profit.

**Facebook Stats:**

More than 1 billion instances of app activity are shared via Facebook daily, the company announced at [SXSW 2013](http://sxsw.com/?ref=hypebot.com) Sunday.

**As for music:** 110 million songs, albums, and radio stations have been played 40 billion times via apps integrated with the social media giant.
