Sony said in a statement that wholly-owned unit Sony Music Entertainment had sold 17.2 percent of its 5.71 percent in Spotify when it debuted on the New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday. Shares of Spotify ended up 12.9 percent at $149.01 on their first day of trade, valuing the world's largest streaming music service at $26.5 billion.
