Facebook launches “Listen” button using your favorite music service on musician’s pages

By at The Next Web:
Facebook just became a better place for musicians to share their music, as the service has just launched a “Listen” button with prominent placement on musician pages.
It looked like Spotify was the service of choice when I first checked out this feature, but it appears that Facebook will automatically fire up the music service that you use the most. This is going to be a huge boon for services like Spotify and Rdio, which are already seeing a lift from Timeline and real-time listening links in Facebook Ticker.
Here’s what the Listen button looks like when you visit a prominent musician’s page on Facebook now:

When you hover over the Listen button you’re told that this feature, in my case, requires Spotify, and once clicked a modal pops up prompting you to launch the music service’s app:
