For the iPhone, iPad and Mac you can Spotify Download, install and use for free. But why is there also the possibility Spotify Premium to purchase for a fee? What are the advantages? In this article I would like to show you how extensively you can use Spotify at no cost and what limits you may come to. I would also like to show you the sources for the Spotify download so that you can use the app on iPhone, iPad, iPod, Mac, MacBook and Co.
Spotify for free: I rediscovered Kraftklub in the rock playlist with 'Songs for Liam'.
Spotify is of course just one service among many for free and legally streamed music. However, it is also the most popular service in this field. Personally, I use Spotify for free and, despite some restrictions and advertising, benefit from the numerous playlists for every mood, for every time of the day, week and season, for resting, partying and so on. If you want to download Spotify for free, you can do so here:
| Spotify (free) | Spotify (Premium) |
Create playlists | Ja | Ja |
Use ready-made playlists | Ja | Ja |
Find artists, albums and songs | Ja | Ja |
Mixed Playback (Shuffle) | Ja | Ja |
Advance or skip song (Skip) | Yes, but only in limited numbers on mobile devices | Ja |
Listen to music without commercial breaks | No (or only for 30 minutes at a time) | Ja |
Download music and listen to it offline | No | Ja |
Listen to songs in the order of the playlist (no shuffle) | Mobile: no; Mac / PC: Yes | Ja |
Select songs directly (no compulsory shuffle) | Mobile: no; Mac / PC: Yes | Ja |
Costs | - | see list |
If you pay for Spotify, you can enjoy every song ad-free when and where you want. You can skip tons of songs, listen to music offline, and so on. And that costs the fun:
Do you also use Spotify; and if so, which version? Or do you prefer to use another service to listen to, download or rediscover music on your computer or on the go? Feel free to leave a comment with your opinion on the relevant ones Apps and your experiences there :)
After graduating from high school, Johannes completed an apprenticeship as a business assistant specializing in foreign languages. But then he decided to research and write, which resulted in his independence. For several years he has been working for Sir Apfelot, among others. His articles include product introductions, news, manuals, video games, consoles, and more. He follows Apple keynotes live via stream.

I like AppleMusic a lot better.
:-)
Somehow I can't make up my mind and use both. : D With Spotify I find the mood playlists somehow better, but otherwise Apple Music is of course better integrated and plays songs when Siri calls. This is very pleasant when driving a car. ;)
