I have been using premium since 2010, on Android, Windows and iOS. One thing that really bothers me is the issues with the 'shuffle' feature. It simply does not shuffle, and repeats certain songs far too often.This has been a long running complaint f...

Hello, At the end of every year, I make a list of my Top 25 favorite albums. I am about to do this, but this is the first year I have switched to Spotify and I cannot find the way to just browse ONLY the albums that I have saved from 2016. I do know ...
Hi! As far as I understand, anyone who follows a collaborative playlist has all the permissions on the playlist. So how can I prevent a random user following my list erasing all the content?
Just wondering if there was any plans to remove the 10k song limit so I can migrate to Rdio now instead of later. It's 2015, why on earth is this even an issue? I've been a premium member for 3 weeks and I've already at 800 tracks so I'll be at 10k i...
