the reason i used spotify was their reccomendation system and now it is the worst of any other platform. Even if they make it free I won’t use it ever again. I don’t want to listen to Unholy after every fucking song.
You mean it repeats a lot of stuff? Thats what I found :( A lot of the liked music lists it generated just seems to be stuff I already liked ages ago
I’m trialing Apple Music, but, only thing is it doesn’t let you download all of your liked songs on your phone it seems
What I ended up doing was making a smart playlist on desktop, that contains all of the songs in your library. Then it’s a single button tap to download everything.
Just tested it. Seems to be downloading. Thanks
Thanks, I’ll take a look at that
I’m sure it did on my iPhone, I relied on it to play music in the car since I don’t have cell coverage for the most part. I’m not sure about the Android app, and my subscription is lapsed now so I can’t check.
You seem to be able to do it for each playlist, but not all… But someone else has a solution it seems
I’m fairly certain there was a setting to just download all songs you’ve added to your library. Then from the songs section of your library, you can shuffle play all. No need for a playlist.
Pandora has amazing stations that randomize like music. I’ve found lots of new artists this way and love it.

yes i have like 5000 liked songs now. Been on spotify for 8 years already. It was way more amazing before. I use to play a song then the next song will be something that other people listened but also liked the song I played.
Fast forward now. No matter what I pkay the next song is always a song I have heard before ESPECIALLY unholy by sam smith. I use to love that song but I loathe it now. I am playing a japanese song. Next song is unholy. I mean what the hell. Then I searched why is this happening.
The cause came out to be cache management. Of they have a song cached in your device spotify will play that. Guck the recommendations. So I thought lets remoce the cache. That does not work because their CDN has that songs cached now and I still get that god forsaken song instead of a true song.
I use to pay spotify yearly basis thats how much I used to use it. Now I have 4 months remaining but don’t use spotify on my android. Only on desktop.

Same, i used to sub with Spotify, in the last 2 years i’ve been on Apple music, they even have better collection and playlists of non-english music. Spotify is full of rap music and so hard to discover anything else unless you know what you are searching for.
What do you recommend for playing deeper tracks from artists I follow? I don’t like to like songs, I either want to like entire artists or just listen. I’m also relying pretty heavily on daily and weekly mixes synced to my phone, for the car, since I don’t have cell service around where I liv nowe. Like, at all, and spotty for hundreds of miles.
I used Google Play Music back in the day, and they were great about this, but YT Music took a major step back. Even if it’s better now, I’m trying to extricate my life from Google.
Pandora has this concept of modes, where you can choose to listen to Deep Cuts, Crowd Faves, New Releases or Discovery for a given station. The problem is:
I used Apple Music for maybe 18 months between Spotify stints, after YT Music. I was trying to switch over to the Apple ecosystem, but am moving back to AOSP Android and Linux. I do like that the depth played from a given artist is a good bit better than Spotify, but I dislike that I can’t either follow artists instead of liking songs, and can’t easily get a list of liked songs to unlike in the future.
There is not a single app for this. For recommendations I now sometimes use last.fm and for songs I use blackhole (even though i have 4 months of spotify premium remaining). Blackhole luckly has a song download option and I can use it with any of my media player and I can’t believe I am saying this but it has a better song recommendation then spotify.
But if you want to spam 1 artist I would say just search on spotify. you will get a playlist like "this is (artist name) ". That has good songs and you can download that playlist too. But What i do is just search it on blackhole and go to town. Download what I like and jam all the way.
