Uruguayan President Luis Lacalle Pou says he is in talks with Spotify to prevent the music streaming giant from leaving the country. Spotify announced it would cease service in Uruguay in February 2024 following the passage of a new music copyright bill requiring “fair and equitable remuneration” for authors, composers, performers, and artists in the country. “We are in talks. Let’s go ahead, I hope we are going to agree,” Lacalle Pou said in comments made to local press.
