But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :-O Funnily there isn't even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.
Spotify, seyahat ederken bazı sınırlamalarla karşılaşabilir. Eğer bir ülkede Spotify'ın hizmeti mevcut değilse veya içerik lisanslamaları farklıysa, bazı şarkılara ve özelliklere erişim kısıtlanabilir. Tostçu Mahmut Menu
I love all the people here on the piracy community who are paying users of spotify. Almost like piracy isnt an issue if the alternative is more convenient. Funny that huh.
Funny enough I just ditched Spotify premium since their apps for every platform I use are far and away the buggiest apps I'd been using regularly, including open source apps. I started using InnerTune instead to get free unlimited streaming on mobile and the funniest thing is, the app works better than Spotify. Bigger library too since it pulls music from YT. Quality probably suffers but IDK, willing to make that trade for no subscription fee
If the services are fulfilling the needs that the customers have, no piracy is needed. There are some issues, like this, but for the most part, Spotify is quite good currently.
Just like how a community centered around recreational drugs is going to recommend against taking drugs if it puts your life in danger, or a python community telling you to learn C if you want to do embedded programming, or a hammer community telling you to use a screwdriver on a screw.
Use a different client, or the web player then. This is a settings issue and attempt of them to combat IP switches and account sharing. You're not a paying customer, and I've not had this issue on a paid account before.
Honestly, Spotify kinda sucks anyway. Use something else.
Spotify has radically changed it's official clients to be full of suggestions, ads, and pointless info I don't care about. Add in all the service restrictions, and it's just a crappy service and user-experience. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
Deezer for one. Doesn't have quite the same amount of music, but I don't seem to have the issue with travel considering I am literally away for half the year.
I'm really liking Apple Music. Mainly because it's streaming bolted on to a real music library manager, so you can do stuff like edit song metadata, 5-star song ratings (though they really want you to use the stupid favorite system that Spotify also has), playlists that let you filter your library based on rules, and even add/upload your own tracks, so anything that's missing you can add yourself.
Though I'm not sure how the experience is if you don't have a Mac, as the web client is hot garbage and they don't have a native Linux client.
Others have mentioned other clients, but I'm going to suggest a different, less convenient route. Would you still have that problem if you routed your phone's traffic through an exit node in your home network?
Considering that i have a free account registered to a 10 min mail and paying customers don't seem to have that problem... It might be some kind of protection against manipulating the charts aswell.
It records Spotify music real time, at the highest available bit rate (as long as you set it). Uses Spotify API to pull track metadata and album art. Its smart enough to not records ads and auto deletes tracks under 30 seconds (I think you can change the time)
It's slower than YouTube DL, but having all the metadata sorted out for you is a big plus.
Its probably about 98% error free, sometimes a second of a song ending gets put on the next track. A quick cut/paste in Audacity and it's fixed.
It works best if you have a separate audio device, otherwise other computer sound gets recorded too. I'm not going to do a full tutorial (unless someone asks), but basically you set the audio for Spotify on audio device #2, and continue as normal on audio device #1. It has a loopback feature too, so if you want to listen/record the same time you can.
Only supports the apartment you're registered in, and only if you gave all the permissions to the goverment app, and stored your biometrics and agreed to everything just to be first in the line for the chip implant
That's how Spotify has been working for years. Spotify doesn't work officially in my current whereabouts, so, in order to use it I just registered an account via vpn and now I just need to log in into spotify using vpn once in two weeks. It has been working this way a few years for me already.
