Spotify is less vulnerable to customer churn compared to TV/movie streaming services, as users are less likely to switch music streaming providers due to the hassle of rebuilding playlists and losing personalized recommendations.

There are services for transferring playlists

yes but often there are some mixups... which is a PITA for those of us with ~10K+ songs

I'm an album man so while I have beyond that many tracks it's more seemless for me.

I predict in a few months, they will put their API behind a paid tier.

Data takeouts are non-optional under the GDPR, so I would be very surprised if that happens.

Would you happen to have one to recommend to switch from Spotify to apple music? I’m thinking about moving but my playlists are keeping me from leaving.

There's probably I few. I used Soundiiz before, just get a free trial and convert them. I also just found Playlisty.

I used TuneMyMusic when I switched to Amazon Music a few months ago. It worked really well. It costs $4 or $5 to subscribe for a month but it's a huge time saver.

I moved all my music using the SongShift app on iOS which was super convenient. At least when I bought it, it was a 1 time cost of like $5, not sure about now. But it matches songs and lets you see which ones don’t line up and then copies the playlist over exactly the same.
