Spotify needs USB synchronization

Petrikord — Tue, 29 May 2012 12:29:50 GMT

Trying to sync with WiFi is just painful to watch. It is onften very slow because my interenet isn't great. Where I live, it's hard to get decent WiFi set up. The whole point of me getting Spotify Premium was so that I could listen to my music offline, but the sync speed is very inconsistent and often very slow. PLEASE add the ability to sync through USB. Not everything has to wireless, ya know!

Is there any reason why it's not possible to sync with USB from iphone? Seems silly to limit it in such way. I have issues hooking up to my wireless internet at home with my phone and can't sync.

It should be, I believe, an easy fix to have the choice to sync by USB. I have searced the community for an answer to why this is not possible, but it seems that the question (though it has been asked A LOT) is just getting ignored.

Can we please have an answer?

I don't have access to any WiFi at all. I too am VERY surprised that we cannot sync through the computer and a USB connection. And I'm very surprised that Spotify never thought of this. So many more customers could use Spotify on their phones. We all have computers, USB cables, etc. NOT everyone has access to a WiFi...

Also one might not have access to the router (in public spaces for example)… so please add the usb option.

I have this problem too. I can't sync over my campuses wifi because of data limitations or something of the sort, so I'm out of music. Sort of ridiculous that I can't just use my USB cable...

I too feel USB sync is needed. IM not sure about other people but syncing over wifi takes along time. Its taken me 3 days so far to sync 300 songs, I have to keep re opening the app.

Syncing should not be taking me this long
