Latest client only shows subscribed artists in CarPlay UI, but shows all artists in device UI

Latest client only shows subscribed artists in CarPlay UI, but shows all artists in device UI

I just upgraded to the latest version of Spotify on my iPhone 6 today, and when I plugged my phone into my car stereo (a Pioneer AVIC-8200NEX) for CarPlay, I discovered that not all the artists whose music I have in my Library now appear when I select "Your Music" -> "Artists" via the CarPlay UI. They all appear via the iPhone's main display. I initially thought the app was suffering from metadata corruption, so I removed and reinstalled it on my iPhone, but the problem did not correct itself. If I go instead to "Your Music" -> "Albums" in the CarPlay UI, all the albums I have music from in my Library seem to appear. The only artists that appear in the CarPlay UI under "Your Music" -> "Artists" are the ones I've subscribed to, which is different than prior behavior.

ROTFLMAO:  This guy representing Spotify can't be serious with his replies, can he?  Can a company really be that dense?  After reading all the posts on this thread, apparently so.

 

Absolutely outrageous.  Glad I am not a shareholder...

I'm sure it's a corporate rule about communications to customers, but it comes off so damned patronizing. But there are a lot of things about this whole conversation that have disappointed me in that way.
