Playing a local file from one PC on another

Hi all

I have a bunch of music on my PC at home (i.e. Metallica) that is not on Spotify. I have Premium and have my Android phone syncd with it so I can listen to it on my mobile. I'm wondering is it possible when I go to my mates place and I log onto my spotify account there can I play these songs? I know currently that the songs say they are unplayable but I guess what I am wondering is is it possible to sync the local files that I had at home from my mobile to the new PC like you can do with itunes?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

What you can do is sync the files on your computer to your phone, allowing you to listen to them through Spotify on the go.

However, there currently isn't a system to play local files from one computer to another, and there isn't a way to "reverse-sync" the tracks from your phone to another computer at present.
