> I switched from Spotify to Youtube Music
I have also suspended Premium and went for Youtube Music. But Youtube Music is even more closed system. There is no API and Google isn't planing any. With Spotify API I am able to export and transfer my playlists and other stuff if Spotify liked it or not.
- gravitas 6y agoI found during my journey (Google Music -> Youtube Music autoconvert -> Spotify import) several online tools which could read a public Youtube Music Playlist (mine are 500+ songs, so not small, not gigantic) and one which allowed me to copy my "likes" over (read YTM like, find same Spotify song and Like it) so there are tools out there even though we don't have official or supported APIs. I could not find one single service to do it all, it took.. I think 3 different services to work through the process. The largest problem I think happened is many of the origin tracks from Google Music were incorrectly named or identified; I had to repair the process in both YTM and Spotify to try and find the actual track which I had in GPM but with bad metadata around it. The mistakes were high enough that I thought to myself "wow, Google Music really had a lot of bad metadata" during the work.
