Deezer, the music streaming service based in France that competes with Spotify, is making another move to expand its customer base in the U.S.: it has acquired the assets of Muve music from Cricket, the wireless carrier acquired by AT&T in 2014 for $1.2 billion, and it will now partner with AT&T to sell Deezer music services to Cricket subscribers.
Terms of the deal are not being disclosed, but in an interview, Tyler Goldman, Deezer’s North America CEO, said that it was a “substantial” sum. We understand that it is under $100 million.
This is Deezer’s second acquisition in the U.S. after it acquired podcasting and talk radio network Stitcher in October 2014, and its first deal with a carrier in the country. |
