    I believe it is very related, either as the cause or the effect.

    Just an excuse to bring it over the finish line what some at management wanted to do but had no justification to begin it.
    At least IMO.

    It is also possible that Anna's Archive moved through with their project because someone learnt about Spotify plans in advance.
