Select and organize multiple Playlists

[mrderek]

This is a direct copy of this idea which was originally posted 2 years ago.  I wasn't a user then, and this idea has since been made inactive, so I'm resurrecting it.  Even just a shift-select on the desktop app would help immeasurably.  Here's the original idea:

"I am looking for easy ways to organize my library.

I want to do some housekeeping in my library, but I find the current system of dragging and dropping individual playlists is too time consuming when the number of playlists reach this high.

First of all, there should be a way to select multiple playlists at once and be able to handle multiple playlists the same way as I can handle single playlist (ability to drag and drop, and rightclick w/ a special dropdown menu for multiple selected items).

Ctrl-clicking, shift-clicking and shift+arrowkeys would help greatly.

[Edit] This idea is nearing its 2 year anniversary of no official recognition. Good times! 🙂

As a sidenote my Spotify library now consists of 1296 playlists."

I still don't understand why there are not more people complaining abou that issue ... How do they use Spotify? Don't they organise their music with playlists?

That's really by far my main problem with Spotify, and if I switch to another music service this would be the single only reason.

Maybe most are "commercial" users who like top billboard songs so they just use the save function and just shuffle and listen to the same stuff over and over...until it's no longer fashionable. Ah, and then there's the spotify playlists for those who don't care what they are listening to. 

Or maybe it's just us who are wrong: too organized and picky for the mainstream.

Got us 1 more kudos. Slowly getting there.... why is it so difficult?!

Please convince 3 friends to "thumbs up" the original post (NOT ME).

Congratulations! We did it!! Let's hope this will be seriously considered now!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

NOW DO IT, darn!

I know someone mentioned that 100 is the magic number of Kudos for this thread to humbly garner Old Man Spotify's actual attention. May this indeed mark the moment of impending change to this infernal problem:  PLEASE ALLLOW US TO SELECT AND MOVE/DELETE MULTIPLE PLAYLISTS AT THE SAME TIME!!!

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for helping this get to 100 kudos!  I'm so glad I'm not alone in wanting to better organise my playlists.  Fingers crossed for a quick resolution.

 for everyone excited about hitting the 100 kudo mark, sorry to burst your bubble, but spotify still doesn't care. 800+ kudos and spotify refuses to consider it.

Spotify is where hope for the music industry goes to die.
