In February, S. Carter Enterprises made a $56 million bid to purchase the Scandinavian company Aspiro, which operates streaming music company Tidal in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K.; and the WiMP music service in Norway, Sweden, and other parts of Europe. Similar to the way Spotify and Pandora work, Aspiro offers services through subscriptions, which cost about $20 a month.
