I can definitely remember this being possible a while back when I was using Spotify.



Yea, it still forces you to listen through the spotify player rather than itunes (which is not at all surprising) and they never supported smart playlists.

Again, not surprising, but certainly enough for me to prefer apple music. The player is just way, way better for my needs.


Also (forgot before I can’t edit) spotify has no way of syncing your music not in their catalogue to your other devices. So my many bootlegs, mixtapes, and music not in the spotify catalogue is a real PITA to manage across devices, and is not even possible in some cases (eg I can’t think of a way to listen to my mixtapes on the xbox spotify player).

Meanwhile apple has the “itunes match” program (...I think?) which solves this.
