Why buy tracks if you have premium

Supertrooper900 — Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:51:58 GMT

I have just discovered Spotify & have a 1 month free premium trial. I am confused though. If I can listen to anything any time I want why would I want to buy a track, or am I missing something ?? Thanks

Hey in Spotify Premium you can hide Get-buttons in Preferences from Edit.

There is no need to buy tracks from Spotify store, just listen or download to Offline with Premium!

You would need to buy the tracks if you wanted to burn your playlists to CD or transfer them onto an iPod nano/shuffle/classic.

Yes, some folks need to transfer tracks to mp3 player or something like this.

Many of Spotify users are just happy with Offline mode.

With Premium you can fullfil your smartphone with music using Spotify's Offline mode (Premium feature) and then just connect to stereo system, headphones or just start your party!

Just wondering about tracks on your playlists that are available offline as a premium subscriber. Do youcontinue to have

access to the tracks (limit of 3,333) if you unsubscribed from premium at a later date? Thanks

Hey,

Offline mode is max. 3,333 tracks. You need to connect your device once at 30 days to Internet. This way Spotify can be sure you're still Premium user. So, if there is no subscription or ended, the access to Offline mode will be denied and content removed.

Thanks for the swift reply. Looks like I'll be keeping my subscription for some time to come.

Buying tracks would also give more money to the artist as well and ensures you can keep that album forever in case it gets pulled from the Spotify library.
