Twitter has continued to release new features for Spaces, such as the option to add co-hosts, since its full launch in 2021, and some chats have attracted more than 150,000 people for a single session. Greenroom was previously known as Locker Room, which Spotify acquired in March last year after purchasing the media and tech company Betty Labs for a reported $62 million.ĭuring the pandemic, Locker Room’s competitor Clubhouse proved to be a valuable tool for conversation, and reached a peak of almost 10 million monthly downloads in February 2021, says Forbes.Ĭompanies like Spotify and Twitter, with its ‘Spaces’ feature, quickly launched rival apps, however, by April 2021, the Clubhouse app was downloaded around 922,000 times.

Greenroom shows now available on Spotify Live include Lorem Life with Dev Lemons and Max Motley, Deux Me After Dark with Deuxmoi and Internet People Live with Zack Fox. Spotify told TechCrunch that “live listening in the main Spotify app will not support the interactive features, like audience questions,” but it will instead allow “creators to interact with their audience in real time and serve as a creation mechanism for hosts”.
