Personally, I just pirate the FLAC files from RED, and play them with VLC. Several advantages to this:

  • Spotify is owned by a shitty, greedy company with shitty, greedy practices.
  • Spotify enforces DRM on almost all its media.
  • FLAC files have superior quality as they are lossless
  • I can play them offline without a subscription
  • Downloads are pretty much instant, as private trackers have insane seeder to leecher ratio

I'm sorry if this isn't the response you're looking for, but as other people have already given recommendations for alternatives, I thought I would just give my 2 cents.

FYI for everyone, RED is a private tracker
