By Emmanuel Legrand

French hi-res music streaming and downloads platform Qobuz is expanding in six new countries: Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland.

  Qobuz was available previously in 12 countries, including France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and the United States.

  “Our ambition is to make Qobuz the global benchmark for high-quality music streaming and download platforms," said Georges Fornay, Deputy CEO of Qobuz. "Today we are pleased to bring our offering to markets where the expectation for a premium service such as ours exists and is growing."

International expansion

  He added: Far from a simple streaming service that gives music to consume, Qobuz aims to bring music back to its true value by offering its subscribers the best of music. In mature markets such as Australia, New Zealand, and Northern Europe, these new locations are highly strategic for Qobuz in the context of our international expansion.

  Qobuz’s music library currently contains over 70 million tracks.
