Warner music india

[TheSlickOne]

Is there an update on Warner music case in India? When will all the songs be available in India? Most of the songs I listen to, have been unavailable since a long time and I'm still waiting for them to be available. 

An update on this issue would be nice.

Hey folks,

Thanks for inquiring into this matter.

We're happy to report that Spotify users in India can access music from Warner Music Group artists.

Happy listening!

Now that all the catalogue is available in India why there is still some music which is not available and greyed out? Like 'thinking bout you' explicit version by Ariana Grande, David Guetta 'nothing but the beat 2.0' album couple of Linkin park songs. And if catalogue is still not fully available can you tell which labels are still not available in Spotify India?

My Question or Issue When will this case with Warner Music resolve? I am unable to access songs by artists under contract with Warner for months now. I've been a Premium subscriber ever since Spotify launched in India back in late February and I'm just disappointed with the library now. Kindly resolve this issue at the earliest else you'll be losing a Premium subscriber from next month.

Looks like the problem is solved. Linkin Park, 21 Pilots, Charlie Puth etc are now available. Enjoy!

It's Done! All of the music are coming as Warner Signs Deal with Spotify...rejoice, they should come into the app in few days or hours

[mayankrohilla]

No bro. You've mistaken. The signed a contract with only Warner Chappell ( Subsidiary of Warner Music Group) and not with WMG. Warner Chappell doesn't includes artists like Led Zeppelin, Coldplay, Linkin Park, etc. It only includes two major artists : Katy Perry and Kendrick Lamar. 

Again, They're fooling us!!!!!

[TheSlickOne]

Are you serious? Because as far as I know Warner chapell is a music publishing division of Warner music group, so I think that they deal with the publishing part of the artists signed by WMG and that's why Spotify signed a deal with chapell.

Issues with Warner’s still going after 11 months. The other two major labels accepted Spotify deal what’s with Warner’s? They say that care and want a better for their artists but all the artists under the Warner’s label are losing money in India not having music available on Spotify. Apparently back in 2009 Warner’s put down all their artists music videos because they weren’t happy with deal Google was offering. I am so glad Green Day is leaving Warner’s.

Read this, this might help a lot 😄 

[Nagaidesu_guy]

You're mistaken my friend, as a proof go look over to Led Zeppelin's
Spotify Page, it's written they're working hard to get more music to this
region, meaning they're in the process of adding every artist's song who's
under Warner Music Group as it wasn't there till yesterday before the
announcement.

[mayankrohilla]

The phrase, " We're working hard...." is there from atleast  past 2 months. I've been checking Linkin Park's artist's page almost every week. 

Who knows how hard they're working. LoL

[Nagaidesu_guy]

Hahahaha, i just found an article listing that only Warner Chappell
Artist's music will be available, sorry about the misinformation from my
side and let's just hope we'll get ALL THE MUSIC.... considering Warner
Chappell came to an agreement, their parent company will aswell.

[mayankrohilla]

I really hope that.

It's almost a year and still they're not available. My annual subscription is valid till March 01. I'll wait till that only else I will be switching to Apple Music. 

SPOTIFY ARE YOU LISTENING?

[Aussiemusicfan]

Green Day ‘s contract has ended with Warner’s. When there new album comes out on 7 February this will be last album for Warner’s. So there should be no reason why Green Days music would not be available on Spotify in India.

[mayankrohilla]

Same scenario with me bro! I also subscribed to spotify premium ever since its launch in India and Warner label songs are still unavailable in Indian Catalogue. Now, it's been more than enough, I'm switching back to apple music in January if this issue wil not resolve. Moreover, I don't think even till Jan. all songs will be available. Spotify is fooling us by saying, " We're trying hard" blah blah. 

[Aussiemusicfan]

Cant believe this is still happening. Warner’s need to get their act together and stop denying Indian fans assets to favourite artists on Spotify. Imagine all the money the artists are losing by not having music available on Spotify in India.

[Aussiemusicfan]

I could not imagine going a day without listening to Green Day I am huge fan. Hope Warner’s get all their music up on Spotify in India soon.

[yig5093]

It feels bad. I really like Spotify's UI so I am stuck with these guys but their collection in India is atrocious and they're doing nothing about it. Charging us more than other competitors such as Apple Music/ Google Play Music where we have access to most of the artists & albums. I can't play half my songs in the playlist I have created. Really dissapointing from this perspective and I do not see them solving their issue with Warner anytime soon.

Hi, is there a way to find newly added songs/albums everyday? May be by language/genre ?
