Not to mention the 10,000 limit on tracks saved to your collection. Which is insane considering that Spotify doesn't distinguish between saved albums and tracks — saving an album is exactly the same as saving all the tracks in that album. A 10,000-track "library" is not a very big collection!
Personally, I've been creating individual playlists for every artist I care about, organized in folders by genre, since those tools were always lacking. So when I ran into the aforementioned limit, I just un-saved all the tracks and went back to solely using playlists.
A few months ago I considered switching to Apple Music, which does this stuff correctly, but nobody has made a migration tool that works.
(Apple Music also has several features Spotify ought to have had a long time ago. A sane distinction between composer and performer for classical music is one. Another is the completely seamless syncing of downloaded music — purchased, encoded or whatever — between all devices. Spotify only supports "offline sync" if you have Spotify open on the machine that has the files.)
