I wish Spotify would separate the player from the service. As a service, Spotify is amazing. As a player, I would like to use something like Winamp.

Exactly, I’d love to see WinAmp, or Audacious be able to at least just grab a playlist from Spotify or Youtube Music. All the streaming services are basically the same music, with their own terrible player, which adds nothing.

I just want to be able to stream music, without using 1.5GB of memory to run a browser.

I've had stuff disappear from my Spotify playlists enough that I no longer trust them.

Storage is cheap, nowadays.
