I love all the people here on the piracy community who are paying users of spotify. Almost like piracy isnt an issue if the alternative is more convenient. Funny that huh.

Streaming service companies take note

No greedy executives want to squeeze out eveey last penny.
You missed a comma
No, greedy executives want to squeeze out eveey last penny.
Wouldn't want you to look like you were defending greedy executives
They were already trying to ruin it with Tidal exclusive albums
Its insane to promote paying services over pirating like this in a piracy forum. Kids what went wrong? Why are you like this?
If the services are fulfilling the needs that the customers have, no piracy is needed. There are some issues, like this, but for the most part, Spotify is quite good currently.
Why do I get the feeling you might be younger than the average age here? Maybe missing an /s?
OP clearly states in the post they are using a modified APK to get premium access without paying
Just like how a community centered around recreational drugs is going to recommend against taking drugs if it puts your life in danger, or a python community telling you to learn C if you want to do embedded programming, or a hammer community telling you to use a screwdriver on a screw.
Others have mentioned other clients, but I'm going to suggest a different, less convenient route. Would you still have that problem if you routed your phone's traffic through an exit node in your home network?
Tailscale ftwwwww
Why add the third party? Just run an instance of wireguard on your home network and call it a day.
Because Tailscale uses Wireguard, but doesn’t rely on my inept ass to know what I’m doing.
Fair, lol.
Because that's physically impossible for tons of people. CGNATs are very common.
Well nothing is impossible, but it does complicate things very much. Certainly outside "just run a container and call it a day" territory.
Pirated product doesn't work exactly as paid product

What was the point of this post? 🙄
Don't get me wrong. I don't mind piracy and fuck Spotify, but come on...
Nope. This was the reason I gave up on premium; my means of payment was registered in my old country and I wasn't allowed to change it.
Spytify
It records Spotify music real time, at the highest available bit rate (as long as you set it). Uses Spotify API to pull track metadata and album art. Its smart enough to not records ads and auto deletes tracks under 30 seconds (I think you can change the time)
It's slower than YouTube DL, but having all the metadata sorted out for you is a big plus.
Its probably about 98% error free, sometimes a second of a song ending gets put on the next track. A quick cut/paste in Audacity and it's fixed.
It works best if you have a separate audio device, otherwise other computer sound gets recorded too. I'm not going to do a full tutorial (unless someone asks), but basically you set the audio for Spotify on audio device #2, and continue as normal on audio device #1. It has a loopback feature too, so if you want to listen/record the same time you can.

TIDAL is crear toó.
I'm a paying customer and I've never had this problem.
I didn't know about this apk. Gonna check this out thanks for putting it on my radar
