The Problems of Converting Spotify Playlist to Deezer Playlist
We checked the converted list and found that several songs were not converted. That is to say, some of the songs won't exist in Deezer playlist converted from Spotify playlist. There are mainly two reasons. One is that the song is not available on Deezer and the other is the website can't analyze the song's file name correctly.
Part 3: How to Create a Spotify Playlist from A Text List of Your Favorite Songs
Converting Deezer playlist, YouTube playlist or SoundCloud playlist to Spotify playlist will be similar to the guide above. In the same way, you may need to sign in different services' account to authorize and load the playlists.
In this section, we will show to how to convert a text playlist into Spotify playlist.
Convert A Text Playlist to Spotify Playlist
Step 1: Click "Plain Text" tab and enter a list of your favorite songs. It's recommended to use "song title - artist" format. The song examples we used below are common songs which should be familiar by most people. Please note that you can enlarge the input area by dragging the upper-right corner.
Step 2: Click Convert button and rename the playlist. Here we use "MyTestPlaylist" as playlist name. Then choose a convert format, here we use "Convert to spotify". Please note that the track list will be listed under the formats.
Step 3: After a while, your text playlist will be converted. Now click "Login with Spotify and export the playlist to your account", then log in your Spotify account.
Once you logged in your Spotify account, you will see "Playlist created" dialog as below. The link of the created playlist will be in the dialog and you can share it to your Facebook or Twitter.
Now you can open Spotify program and enjoy your new playlist. However, such a playlist conversion is still not perfect.
The Problems of Converting Text Playlist to Spotify Playlist
In our test result, there are two problems. One is that the artist of the song "Wild Ones" is "We Are Wild Ones Florida" instead of "Florida", this may not a problem because the song is what we need when we play it on Spotify. The other problem is that the song "my love - westlife" is replaced by the song "Redbone - Childish Gambino" from "Awaken, My Love!" album, which is far away from our expection. However, when we search "my love - westlife" in Spotify program, the song is right there.
Best Spotify Playlist Converter: Convert Spotify Playlists to Local MP3/M4A Files
No matter which streaming music service you use, the best way to enjoy the playlist is to download the playlist to local computer as all-purpose MP3 or M4A files. As to Spotify, we all know that Spotify Free doesn't allow users to download songs, and Spotify Premium users can download Spotify playlist for offline listening in protected Ogg file format. However, the protected Ogg files can't be played on iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, Sony Walkman and various MP3 players, or used as background music in video editing programs or apps. That's why we need a Spotify playlist to MP3 converter.
