Hello Spotify staff,
Here is something that should be changed/improved in spotify.
I have a spotify unlimited account. It sometimes happens that some titles that have been available so far are suddenly not available anymore. I have three points about that.
- I don't understand why you are doing this : I guess you had an agreement with the rights owner of such titles BEFORE you put them online, right ? So what ? The agreement gots somehow broken ?
- To me, it's a huge annoyance, to have a title that you love in your playlist that suddenly becomes unreadable.
- The worst is that spotify does not tell you anything about it! You simply get an error "Connection error. Please retry (802)". Spotify wouldn't tell you the title is not available anymore.
In my case, I was peacefully listening to one of my playlists. Spotify stopped. I discovered there was an error message "Connection error. Pease retry. (802)". Ok, let's retry later. When retrying I couldn't get the title to be played. Somehow I clicked on the album link. And that when I saw that the title was now in darker color, indicating it is not available.
"Seriously !?" I said to my self.
The worst is, after restarting spotify the title striclty disapeared from my playlist. Great ! So if the title ever comes back online I will have to go seek it again and re-add it to my playlist ? How convenient ...
Do something about that, and avoid title sudden unavailabilty, 'cause that annoyes your customers off.
Edit: about the titles disapearance from playlists, just hidden (there is an option in spotify preferences "hide unavailable tracks".
