We strongly recommend sourcing all third-party audio content from Spotify. Previews of Spotify content may appear in Active Learning or in line with interactive ebook text. Material from other third-party sources will be presented via links. It may not be possible to include those links in some activities.

Spotify is a commercial streaming service of DRM-protected music. It allows playback of individual songs or playlists. There are two tiers of service: Spotify Free and Spotify Premium.

• The free accounts have some limitations:

  • The streams will include Spotify’s ads.
