offline playlists still buffering

bmc1028 — Sat, 09 Apr 2016 16:16:53 GMT

I drive all day and sometimes have bad service so I went with premium so I can download my playlists and play offline. I thought I'd be able to play my playlists without worry of being in a dead spot and having my music pause but this isn't the case. It doesn't seem worth paying if I can't have the uninterrupted music. Am I doing something wrong,

Maybe you ran out of space and songs didn't download properly?

Oh well, gotcha.

I'm using iPhone so maybe the app has some bugs on Android.

I'm basically on my 2-month trial since last night, and everything has worked smoothly so far (offline download).

Don't mean to treat you like if you were dumb, but what I do is: Go to album, "Save", then "Download" (or offline, whatever it's called). A couple minutes later the album is downloaded and I get a green icon (arrow pointing down) next to the album, when viewed through "Your Music". If the album hasn't downloaded completely (all songs), then all I see is a "not available offline" message when trying to see the album songs, but I can play the already downloaded ones individually from "Songs".

So far I haven't tested downloading single songs, just full albums, for what it's worth.
