Besides the free yearly subscription to Apple Music, T-Mobile also offers its customers an exclusion from paying for data usage for music and video streaming services. It also has an app that allows you to cache snippets of the songs you play and download them for offline listening.
Offline downloads
Using Spotify offline playback is a great way to save your data on monthly mobile phone plans. With Spotify you can download your favorite songs, albums, and playlists to play on the go. You can also download podcasts to listen to on your phone.
Spotify Premium members can download playlists and songs to listen to offline. You can download any song or album that is available on Spotify, and you can also save local copies of songs so you can listen to them when you don’t have access to the internet.
You can download music from Spotify by going to the Settings section and clicking on Offline Mode. You can also toggle this option on the web app. In the web app, you’ll see a “Download” option on the top of the track list.
Spotify offline playback is available for desktop computers. However, you can only download 10,000 songs for offline playback on up to five devices. If you have more than that, you’ll have to go online at least once every 30 days to keep them downloaded.
Spotify Premium members can also download music from the Liked Songs playlist. This will automatically download the songs to your device, and they’ll save them to your library. You can also change the settings to exclude cellular data when downloading music. If you don’t use cellular data, you can use your Wi-Fi connection to stream music.
If you are using a low-limit cell phone plan, you may worry about how much data Spotify is using. However, you can manage your data usage with Spotify. You can use Wi-Fi for unlimited streaming and downloads, or you can use cellular data when it is available.
Caching snippets of the songs you play
Depending on how you use your Spotify account, it might be time to clear the cache. Whether you are using the desktop app or the mobile app, there is a simple way to do this.
Cache files are temporary files that contain data for the app to operate smoothly. The file is a little bit smaller than the actual song, but it still holds some useful information.
When you play a song, Spotify draws on the song’s information in the cache. This means that when you press play, you’ll hear the song without having to wait for Spotify to download the full song. The cache will also keep track of songs that you’ve listened to most. This helps relieve the pressure on Spotify’s servers.
However, if you find that your storage space is quickly dwindling, you may want to delete the cache to free up space. You can do this by going to the app’s settings and then selecting Clear cache. If you don’t have this option, you can clear the cache manually.
To clear the cache, you’ll want to delete the file that the app uses to store the information. This can be either the local cache file or the data folder. When you delete the file, you’ll get a corresponding alert. The alert isn’t necessarily a good indication that the file has been deleted.
If you are unable to delete the cache file, you can try to change the size of the file. Spotify’s default setting is that the size of the cache can never be more than 10% of the available disk space.
In this way, you won’t waste your hard drive space. You can also delete the song you’ve downloaded directly.
Streaming quality
Changing the streaming quality on Spotify is an easy way to increase the quality of your songs. There are many different quality options to choose from, from low quality to high quality. You can also choose the best streaming quality for your device.
For a standard streaming quality, you will typically be able to play songs at a bitrate of 160 kilobits per second. For a high quality streaming, you can increase this bitrate to 320 kbps, allowing you to enjoy finer details. However, you should be aware that your data usage will be more for high quality streaming. You can switch to a lower quality stream if your Internet connection is poor, or if you want to save data.
You can also change the streaming quality manually. To do so, go to the Spotify app and click the ‘Settings’ icon. This will bring you to a new window where you can change the streaming quality. You can choose from 24 kbps (Low), 96 kbps (Normal), and 320 kbps (Very High).
You can also try turning off the Gapless Playback feature. This may fix the “Can’t play current track” error. If this doesn’t work, you may need to restart your computer. You can also try reinstalling the Spotify app.
If all else fails, you can also contact Spotify support. They should be able to help you solve your problem. If you don’t have any luck with this, you can try using a third-party tool to reset the Spotify bitrate.
The new Spotify app includes a built-in equalizer. This will increase the music quality, which can be useful if you want to hear more details. It’s also possible to import music from your computer to the Spotify app.
T-Mobile exempts customers from data charges for music- and video-streaming services
Streaming video and music are two of the biggest uses of data on mobile devices. While T-Mobile has always provided unlimited data for its customers, the company has added an additional feature that allows them to stream video without counting against their monthly allotment.
T-Mobile’s new “Binge On” plan is an extension of its Music Freedom program. The company says it will allow customers to stream unlimited video from popular online video services, including HBO, Netflix, and ESPN. However, the quality of video from these services will be reduced to DVD quality, rather than high definition.
This service will also allow T-Mobile customers to access apps like Beatport, Slacker, Pandora, and Spotify without data charges. In addition, customers will be able to stream music from services like iHeartRadio, Rhapsody, iTunes Radio, and Spotify.
T-Mobile’s program allows customers to listen to over 200 million songs a day without charging data charges. The company says customers stream about 2.2 songs per person per day. However, video is a much larger data hog, so a few hours of video can quickly eat up an entire month’s allotment.
T-Mobile said the new program is not an attempt to violate US laws. It is an effort to make certain video apps more attractive to customers. However, it raises questions about anti-competitive practices and could be a potential stumbling block for competitors.
T-Mobile’s Music Freedom service started in 2014 with seven partners. It has since expanded to include 40 music streaming services. However, the program has not yet been fully approved by US telecom regulators. It is a controversial move that has raised a number of questions, including whether it violates net neutrality rules.
T-Mobile offers a free yearly subscription to Apple Music
Earlier this week, T-Mobile announced a series of new promotions for its customers. One of the promotions involves a free yearly subscription to Apple Music. If you subscribe to the service through T-Mobile, you will be able to listen to the best of the best music in the U.S., including exclusive releases.
The ad-free, free plan features over 80 million tracks, 4 million podcasts, and other streaming services. Unlike some other streaming services, the free tier isn’t limited to on-demand playback. It can also be used to save up to 10,000 songs.
In addition to the free tier, T-Mobile will also offer a free year of Apple TV Plus. This will be available starting August 25, and will be offered to customers who subscribe to the Magenta 55 Plus or Magenta First Responders plans. The offer will be available to T-Mobile for Business customers as well.
If you want to save some cash, you can also purchase a six-month Apple Music subscription from Best Buy. You will need a Best Buy account and a credit card to complete the purchase. The company will then send you a code to use with the Apple Music app.
In addition to the free Apple TV Plus, T-Mobile will also give customers access to a free year of Netflix. This is a nice bonus for customers who aren’t already subscribers. The subscription plan is also available on the iPhone and iPad.
The free tier from Spotify is also impressive, especially when compared to other similar offerings. The free tier features over 80 million tracks, but it doesn’t include offline listening. The company uses three different algorithms to determine your playlists, including genres, time of day, and musical elements.
