If I make these playlists public will the artists get paid when these songs are played? Or should I keep them listed as private?</P> Tue, 19 Apr 2022 05:59:49 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/App-Features/Public-vs-Private-Playlists/m-p/5369586#M2362 user-removed 2022-04-19T05:59:49Z https://community.spotify.com/t5/App-Features/Public-vs-Private-Playlists/m-p/5369740#M2363 <P>People won't be able to play local songs on a public playlist.
