Thetideishigh2021 Posted September 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I was recently on the Noordam and was trying to play Spotify music on my iPhone to a small speaker. I could blue tooth the speaker to my phone, ( btw I had purchased the surf wifi package) but couldn’t get any Spotify songs to stream. I could play songs that I had previously purchased via iTunes so I don’t think it was a speaker problem. Any ideas? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richwmn Posted September 2, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 2, 2023 You need to have the 'Premium' package to stream 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted September 2, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 2, 2023 As @richwmn said you need a different package. iTunes downloads your songs and they are available without internet. I don’t know about Spotify but I know I need internet for I heart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the post above indicates, along with your own experience, if you have music already downloaded and aren’t reliant on streaming, then it makes for easier playback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know about Spotify but I know I need internet for I heart. If you pay the monthly premium for Spotify, you can download playlists to your phone. My main playlist of about 250 songs is download so I always have access to it and can play songs offline. This is the main reason I pay for Spotify, listening to music while on public transportation can be spotty at times if streaming. (No pun intended) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I download my own workout music as I can’t stand that loud stuff in the gym and I also download high quality classical music. Most everything else I can find on the tv. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
