Spotify had been reported to expand its service to Canada, with reports dating back to 2012.

iTunes Radio is expected to launch in Canada sometime soon (rumours pointed to ‘spring’), but so far it hasn’t materialized. Plans for iTunes Radio might have been delayed or modified with Apple’s acquisition of Beats for $3 billion, which includes the Beats Music streaming music division.
