The content is not available

faiyaztanvee — Wed, 22 Mar 2023 09:39:37 GMT

I have been using Spotify Premium for more than 1 year. It was a usual problem I am facing that in my playlist, I see some songs become unavailable days passing by. It's too annoying to see your favourite songs not available all of a sudden. Recently, I saw that more than 30 songs have been gone! Can you tolerate this anymore? Spotify is being evil. They should fix this ASAP.

Hello there @faiyaztanvee

I'm also a long-term Spotify user and have seen many songs, artists and sometimes even entire labels worth of music vanish from the platform. However Spotify as a streaming service doesn't really have a say in what's available here and what is not - that's decided entirely by the artists, labels and rightsholders.

The songs might be gone because something changed in distribution or agreements.
The artist can decide whether or not to keep something up. Labels and artists may change distribution, which also means music becomes unavailable for a period of time.
Labels may close their doors and as a result music that they had released will disappear from streaming platforms until the respective artists reupload them after sorting out the paperwork. Some may decide to not reupload instead.

Streaming platforms are extremely convenient for the listeners, but it's important to remember that availability of music can and will change in time. Spotify has to simply agree with that, since the platform doesn't have the right to keep music on the platform against the will of artists / labels / distribution / rightsholders.

Even when you buy something from Bandcamp (a music store that creates a Collection out of music you've bought), the artist may decide to delete the release, which means it disappears from your Collection as well.
So yeah... Internet is omnipresent, but also everchanging. : )
