Spotify Free Users Can Now Play Any Song On Demand

Something exciting is happening at Spotify HQ! Hot on the heels of finally delivering long-promised lossless audio for Premium subscribers, the company has unveiled another fantastic treat – this time for its free users. Get ready, because you can now listen to any track you want, immediately!

Previously, the ability to select and play a specific song on demand was a perk reserved for Premium members. Non-paying users were stuck in a shuffle-only world, patiently waiting for their desired track to appear within an album or playlist, all while battling limited skips. That frustrating wait is now a thing of the past.

Now, with the free plan, you can simply search for any track, select it from an album or playlist, or tap on a shared link, and it will play instantly. This highly anticipated feature is rolling out globally starting today. While this is a huge improvement, it’s worth noting that other limitations of the free tier remain: you’ll still encounter ads and need to use your limited skips wisely.

Don’t forget, the free Spotify experience already includes personalized recommendations, handy AI playlist covers, and dynamic “daylists” that adapt to your daily routine. So, if you can live without the audiophile-grade hi-fi audio, offline listening capabilities, or an ad-free experience, the free version of Spotify just got a whole lot sweeter.
