Problems with paying for entertainment services lead to the fact that users with a paid subscription are deprived of their usual conveniences. For example, Spotify will transfer listeners with Russian premium accounts to regular ones. The reason for this is that payments do not go through the Visa and Mastercard systems, and it is impossible to add the domestic Mir. Therefore, if you do not want to switch to the basic level with advertising and other restrictions, then the question arises of how to transfer music to another service, for example, to Yandex.Music. The service supports payments with Visa and Mastercard cards issued in Russia.

You need to go to the web version of Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/ and log in.

Select the desired playlist in the menu on the left, then go to “Share” → “Copy playlist link”.

In the next step, go to the Spotlistr website, where you need to log in with your Spotify profile, and at the same time you will receive a warning about providing access to personal data. If you are worried, then after transferring the music, you can deny access to the service.

After that, paste the link to the playlist.

Then a menu opens where you can see the name of the playlist and the list of tracks. You need to upload a file in the suggested .CSV format. By default, the parameters Artist (Artist) and Track Name (Song name) are selected, but you can select additional data if you wish.

Then you need to go to Yandex.Music at https://music.yandex.ru/import/ , here download the previously downloaded list of tracks. Songs can be added to a new playlist or to an existing one.

During the music transfer test, I noticed that there were 73 tracks in the Spotify playlist, of which seven were not available for listening. I was able to transfer 72 songs to Yandex.Music: perhaps the music database of the services is different and some tracks may not be in it. But I was able to run all 72 songs.

The procedure for transferring music from one service to another is quite simple, but somewhat tedious: each playlist must be copied individually. Therefore, if there are a lot of them, then it is better to be patient, since all playlists cannot be transferred in one fell swoop.
