So now, apparently, there's been some new updates and Connect doesn't work for shit. Then, years ago, they did away with drag-&-drop for local files (!), and then you had to do the stupid 'Add Source' workaround - which works, but is a huge pain in the ass, especially, if, like me, you listen to a shit-ton of local files. It was like someone answered my dreams of having a perfectly-realized and micro-controllable music database.

It was genius picking tracks, scrubbing, shuffling, even controlling the volume. I pay for Premium for Android and have been using Connect to play music in my back yard, from my desktop (which is hooked up to a stereo), for years, using my phone for a 'remote' (I also use it on my bike rides, which is the main reason I subscribe to Premium). I know this is WiPiPo/1st-world problems 101, but Spotify used to be my dream app and now it seems as they're doing everything in their power (or nothing at all?) to ruin everything great that it was and drive away all of their customers (based on myriad complaints I see everywhere).

Is spotify free shitty
