[All Platforms] Music Videos

Idea: "[All Platforms] Music videos"

Artists record a video to go with their music / you could upload the music videos that already exist!
I really want to watch them on Spotify while listening.

At Apple Music I can choose between listening to the music, or watching their video.

Dear, Spotify

I would like music videos to be added to your app. I feel like it would be a better experience if we have music videos. I provided photos of how it looks like.

It's been quite some time. Will this ever come?

Using Spotify on my TV so that I can play it through my stereo system at the house and have it on the TV while cleaning, crafting, etc.

 

I am surprised to see that there's no visualizer feature or anything. There's a dark mode, which turns off the screen with minimal information, but I think it would be great to have the ability to have a visualizer on screen. This would be great for when listening through a computer or TV. Bizarre thing is that on my phone, there are some kind of visual effects in the background, but who stares at their phone or has Spotify open when listening on their phones? Even these simple visual effects that are present on the phone, but formatted for 16:9 would be a huge addition!

There should be a music video feature.  You can see the videos of your favorite artists or see video playlists from your favorite decades or genres.

As a kid, I spent countless hours watching music channels, like The Voice and MTV. It was so entertaining to listen to good music and watch the music videos made for the songs. Artists still create music videos, but unless you specifically search for a song on YouTube, you're unlikely to come across them nowadays. Spotify should introduce a feature that play the music videos along with the songs. Many televisions have the Spotify app, so when you push play your playlist, the music would play through the stereo, and the music videos would display on the television. Ideally, this feature should also work on phones and computers via the Spotify app. This function would provide great entertainment in so many situations!

Spotify needs to implement videos AND streaming  into its platform to enable copyrighted songs to content creators toolkit. This would attract so many artists and content creators to the platform! Its doable, cmon be like the western WeChat in terms of multiple services in one app!

I would pay extra to have the music videos pulled into my Spotify account on my laptop and cell phone. I work for a software company and I hear similar comments from my employees.  (I always use my account for our get-togethers)  We all share the view that we don't want to use YouTube if we don't have to due to their censorship of content over the last 3 years.  I am not the only one who would pay more.

It's been since 2019... Spotify needs to start using their resources and get this going since the CarThing flop
