    How reliable is the song matching on YT? I’d imagine some songs would be obscure or exclusive to Spotify so that you can’t find it on YT, let alone it being a low quality one.

    I’d approach this problem by using Spotify’s API (or scraping) to get the good stuff, then sending it to my phone whenever I’m connected to the wifi.

      YouTube ends up having more of the obscure stuff I like than Spotify does, actually so for that stuff I can’t even add it to a Spotify playlist.

      It’s remarkably good though. I mean even if you’re just putting a little vid up to show something off really quick, it can remove the audio if it picks up a track playing on the radio in the background and is usually correct in identifying the song.
