OK, I have a question.

If I get Spotify Premium, can I download albums to my computer? Saving albums on Spotify doesn't do me much good, as I am an iPod guy and don't listen to music on my phone.

However, I see that they mention no internet needed. I just don't want to use data if I do listen on my phone.

Someone school me please.

I believe they save on your computer/phone so you don't use data. It's not like a saved MP3 or anything though.

TAC · « **Reply #2 on:** July 06, 2016, 06:41:44 PM »

But do they save on my computer Spotify, or can I load the files into a music folder on my computer? So I can load onto my iPod?

You cannot put your Spotify songs on your iPod.

TAC · « **Reply #4 on:** July 06, 2016, 07:16:59 PM »

OK. Then I really have no reason to pay for it then.

Mosh · « **Reply #5 on:** July 06, 2016, 07:21:56 PM »

Just get the spotify app and save them onto your ipod from there.

TAC · « **Reply #6 on:** July 06, 2016, 07:24:56 PM »

TAC does not technology.

Yup. Need not apply!

10/10, would read again.

I will not make fun of Tim on this. I had no answers for him. I'm as clueless.

I'm in pretty much the same boat, just this response was so expected, yet so fucking hysterical...

As far as I remember they are stored as ogg files, but they are encrypted with DRM, so even if you could find the files themselves, you would have to break the encryption first.

Translate. It's possible.

What's really funny is that us Fogeys are thinking we are so cool having iPods but even our iPods are so obsolete that they no longer make them!

King Postwhore · « **Reply #15 on:** July 07, 2016, 01:57:18 PM »

If they had a 160gb touch I Pod I would buy it in a heartbeat. I don't like music stores on my phone.

hefdaddy42 · « **Reply #16 on:** July 07, 2016, 02:56:57 PM »

What I want is a really inexpensive 500 GB mp3 player. Is that so much to ask?

King Postwhore · « **Reply #17 on:** July 07, 2016, 03:03:03 PM »

That would hold all my music. I'm up to 420gb.

Ok, I have another question...

How do I access song lyrics of a song on Spotify?

Glasser · « **Reply #20 on:** April 01, 2023, 01:48:52 PM »

Use Qobuz. Fuck Spotify.

Nowadays, for most songs, just scroll up.

I saw that there's s little microphone at the bottom of the screen.

Every thread Tim starts is a "Fool's" thread.

I don't have an Ipod and I don't know what Ipod Classic means.

I still rock an ipod classic!

Shadow Ninja 2.0 · « **Reply #29 on:** April 02, 2023, 12:05:46 PM »

I have an iPod classic that I think is in the early stages of death. I will be very sad when it goes.

I don't have an Ipod and I don't know what Ipod Classic means.

It's one of the models:

I have one that I modded. I have a solid state hard drive that holds a terabyte of information, but I've exceeded the capacity of the iTunes database (over about 30,000 songs it can get wonky on the iPod, and I'm at like 36,000; it barely works). I'm probably going to mod a second one and have two. Shitty solution, but I do like the iPod format and functionality. If I can figure out an alternative - for example, I have my dad's old new Samsung phone - I'll use that.

I'd love to have a portable, one-stop device to hold my entire collection until I can get the streaming functionality set up from my network drive.

I have a question..

What has happened to Spotify? I used to be able to view my Saved albums but now it seems I can only access them in a Liked Songs list?

I liked it the old way better. Seems like it changed a week or two ago. Is it a Settings issue?

Ben_Jamin · « **Reply #33 on:** May 16, 2023, 04:14:50 PM »

Apparently, looks like they did an update. I use it on my laptop and the interface changed a lot.

TAC · « **Reply #34 on:** May 16, 2023, 04:35:08 PM »

Well the update sucks. It's way harder to mess around on it.
