Popular Swedish Internet music site Spotify, which has more than two million users in Europe, is planning to invade the U.S. in Q3-4 2009.

Spotify offers a library of more than six million tracks, and is supported by audio ads and monthly subscription fees (£9.99 in Britain).
Spotify combines the idea of putting iTunes "into the cloud" (running as an Internet service, instead of as a local application) with the idea of making music discovery more social.
Here's Spotify's official intro video for their service:
