You’re not buying MP3/OGG files. You’re buying a license to stream songs from Spotify on their terms.



"Streaming" is a transfer of data to the user's computer. The user is simply choosing to manually manage the data already being transferred. This is legal.


It may be something you can physically do, but it’s not something that’s allowed by Spotify’s terms of service.
