Warner Music Group Nearing Spotify Deal

Last week, Warner Music Group boss Steve Cooper announced the first new major label deal with YouTube. Now Cooper is reportedly close to cutting a new deal with Spotify.

Warner Music Group will likely sign a new deal with Spotify within weeks, sources tell The Post. Universal and indie representative Merlin have already signed with the #1 music streamer.

Sony, however, has reportedly not yet seriously come to the table for talks. That may be because Rob Stringer just took over as boss of the globe's #2 music group and has had his hands rather busy with changes in the executive suite.
