3 offers free Spotify with Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and Vivaz

3 is offering free Spotify on the go if you sing along with the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 or Sony Ericsson Vivaz on a two-tier contract.

Spotify Premium costs a tenner a month for advert-free streaming and use of a mobile app. Sign up for a 24-month contract, then text Spotify to 39000 for your two free months. If a piffling two months isn't enough for you, the HTC Hero comes with free Premium access for the full 24-month contract.

Son Eric is promoting the offer with a series of travel-themed playlists by popular musicians. Choose from auto-tuned chanteuse Ellie Goulding, Dairy Lea-faced warblers Keane, banjo-pickin' folkniks Mumford and Sons, unforgivably coiffed dreariness merchant Erik Hassle, the horribly named but actually quite good Courteeners, dadrock survivors the Stereophonics, and Scots songstress Amy MacDonald, who looks like an angel but sings like Vic Reeves. The highlight is the place-name-based offering from electro-wibblers Delphic. It's got Vienna in it.
