I Love You, Spotify, But Here Is My One Problem

An open letter to Spotify.

Dear Spotify,

I have been a loyal user of your streaming service for over four years.

Spotify has given me hundreds and hundreds of hours where all I do is listen to music. I listen to Spotify while I'm laying in bed relaxing. I listen to Spotify while trying to focus and work on projects. I listen to Spotify while on long road trips to make my car ride a little more enjoyable. I listen to Spotify while at the gym even though I don't go as much as I should sometimes.

If you know me personally then you know how much a fan I am of so many artists, bands, musicians, etc. It is a great way to be able to listen and save all your music to your library especially with all the music I love to listen to.

With all that being said, I do have one problem with my favorite music streaming service.

I need more space in my library for more music.

I was recently trying to save some new music to my library collection and got a little message at the top of my application that started with saying "Epic collection, friend" then proceeded to tell me that I have reached my limit on the number of songs I can have in my library collection.

When I saw this message, I had so many emotions that came up. I was confused. I was angry. I was sad. How was I supposed to save the new music in my library I am bound to listen to in the future without of getting rid of any of my other saved music?

After doing some research, I found that your streaming service currently gives all of their users a limit of 10,000 songs that can have saved in the library. It doesn't matter if you have Spotify Free or Spotify Premium either.

I literally had no idea you had a limit to the number of songs you could have saved in your library. I never thought I would hit in a million years that I would that much music saved on my account. I guess when you are an avid music fan like I am then it really shouldn't come to a surprise that I have that many songs after having an account for over four years.

I get it that this is such a first-world problem and I absolutely know that but I would love for some change to happen here.

I just want to know why they have a limit on the number of songs you can save in your library. I have been researching on online forums and blogs for reasons why. I can't find one. There isn't an explanation anywhere. That's probably the most frustrating thing about this.

I need some answers, Spotify.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
