[Your Music] Creating "Collections" of Albums

[Walrusman]

I have an idea that could make using Spotify better for people who put a lot of effort into managing their music libraries (and for everyone else as well).

Collections menu in Your Library

The idea is simple: Being able to create collections or lists of whole albums. Of course you could just add albums to regular playlists but then it just adds the songs separately, which is messy, so you can't easily see which or how many albums are there in the list or checking if there are missing songs.

You can add and remove whole albums to collections, much like songs to playlists

By having album collections we could easily see which albums are added to them and it would make it quicker to select certain albums for downloading by toggling the download button of a collection containing them. We could also re-order the list of albums quicker than re-ordering a simple playlist of consecutive albums broken down to songs.

This would also make it possible to listen to certain albums in a specific or even random order without having to add every album to the queue one by one.

You can download/un-download every album in the collection with one tap, you can also either play the albums in order or shuffle them, or even shuffle all songs within the albumsAdding or removing albums from collections

Damn, after 7 years, nothing is done. Spotify are sore stubborn dumb**bleep**s.

Yeah, I really thought that their attention to their customer's needs was way better than this

For god's sake do this already! I hate to be trying to find some mellow jazz record among a ranchero and all genres of metal pile of albums!

Why haven’t they implemented this yet?? This would be such a great, helpful feature!

[SWGHL]

@imjayhime Because Spotify employees are stubborn.

Implementing this would be a great help. I just looked for this over and over, because I just assumed this option to exist. It seems to be  a necessity for heavy users? Right now like having all CDs/LPs at home randomly piled in a big box 😞

I really need this option,please add it.

The best idea and very needed feature!

It's rediculious, that it's not implemnted yet. Forcing users to create playlist. It would be much better to create collections and add link to the original album. Now an album apears as playlist just for the sake for adding it to a folder. This way is loosing the relation to the original album and it's not possible to ditignuish own playlists from albums. 

Spotify, please priortize and implement it!

Exactly, big blindness on Spotify's side..... This was a must have from the start
