With the free version of Spotify, users are limited to how many times they can skip and replay songs. Currently, there are 15 selected playlists for free users to pick and play at will – everything else will shuffle! Skipping and Replaying Spotify has a massively limiting feature on its smartphone app (interestingly, not on its tablet or desktop app) that restricts free users to listening to shuffled playlists and albums. This can be really annoying and will completely pull you out of the listening experience. If you have Spotify free, your listening experience will be interrupted every few songs with a short, unskippable advert.
