My Question or Issue
I was awaiting Spotify's arrival to India with bated breath and immediately signed up for the trial when the option was up. But my glee slowly faded when I saw how much of my favourite music isn't available at all. I understand that Spotify is having licensing issues but I didn't think it would be this severe.
I could have lived without stuff that wasn't released in India at all, but a majority of the music that's missing is readily available on other streaming services like Apple Music.
I was so ready to cancel all my other subscriptions and switch to Spotify for good, but I don't know if I want to now. If this isn't sorted out by the end of my trial, I will not be renewing my subscription with Spotify.
I really hope that won't be necessary. I'm a big fan.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I wonder what songs are they 'putting', as you put it A large number of artists I listen too are missing. First the WMG problem and now saregama. Things are not looking to great. I wonder if anyone from spotify can give us some sort of a time frame when the problem will be resolved. I dont think they can really have a viable music service with so much songs missing from their catalogue.
that's pretty much exactly what happened to me. I bought the 1-year subscription out of sheer excitement and now I regret it.
By the way, coming back after long time, is there a way to find Spotify is adding new songs (not newly released), but new catalog. Also, one feature that is still keeping me in Apple music is iCloud Music library, which means I have no worry for missing catalog as long as my own music is in the cloud and appears for me to listen. Spotify doesn't have this golden feature I would say. Too sad, I am unable to go to Spotify though I wished a lot.
I had been using Spotify for 2 years using a VPN . When it arrived in India i waited for 4 months before purchasing a subscription. And even after this time, most of the best artists that are availible everywhere else are'nt availible here and i contacted Spotify and their Stupid Answer Bot sends the same reply every other message. Coldplay literally has 3 songs availible in India, which even Shitty Bloatware filled music players like Hangama and Gaana have. Personally feel like i wasted my money on purchasing a Spotify Premium in India.
Hey mate, I live in India as well and would love to have access to songs not available here. Do u mind telling me what vpn u r using currently? Thanks
The Doors are missing..is their music company covered in your list
Hi, @Therealsud , what platform are you using?
I use it in multiple platforms, Apple, Android as well as windows. It
Its been more than 3 months Spotify has released in india but they haven't solved their dispute with warner music. Its pathetic. Atleast there is some to keep us updated on whats happenning!
Hello
I went through the article which was given.
But the question is totally different, we are not asking about the recent songs..for example none of Ed Sheeran's songs appear on Spotify.
I am speculating that this issue is exclusive to India alone.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks.
Saregama And few others have removed their Music Library from Spotify India
for those who are using spotify for free change the country location to usa. am not sure if it would work for those who bought premium
Spotify in India need to get**bleep** right
Any updates on the missing labels. Though I love the platform but its no fun with half my favorite missing. What a waste.
Hi @-_uudoab9xst9,
We're currently working on this.
As we add new content to Spotify every day, please keep checking whether what you're looking for has become available as it may appear (or reappear) anytime.
Let us know if we can help you with anything else, we'll be happy to!
A lot of content is not available for India. This should be resolved ASAP otherwise there's no point using Spotify. Apple music has very good content in that regard.
Hey there you, Yeah, you! 😁 Welcome - we're glad you joined the Spotify Community! While you here, let's have a fun game and get…
