Podcasts cause a lot of traffic, even when they are downloaded

Podcasts cause a lot of traffic, even when they are downloaded

Hi!

 

I downloaded the latest episode of the german podcast 'Fest und Flauschig' and also the playlist that accompanies the show called 'Fidi und Bumsi' 😉

 

Today on the way to work I wanted to play this episode, but although it was already downloaded, spotify told me it's unable to play it. So I switched to online mode and immediately spotify used 10 MB traffic for nothing actually. Then I was able to listen to the downloaded episode and no more traffic was generated.

 

15 minutest later I switched to the 'Fidi und Bumsi' playlist to play a song, which the hosts of the show recommended. When I switched back to the podcast, at first I got the same error again, that the podcast couldn't be played (i think i had no internet for a few moments). After a few seconds it worked, but again Spotify used another 10 MB.

 

Please fix this. I don't understand why spotify needs generates any traffic when you want to play offline music/podcasts!
