Question

What are some free apps for creating playlists?

Community Answer

Most apps are free, but they usually require leasing or licensing for songs. iTunes, Amazon Music, and Groove are examples of free apps that need a subscription or purchase for most songs. Alternatively, you can create a playlist on your blog or website by linking to music on YouTube or Vimeo, as many publishers have licensing agreements with these platforms.

Question

What types of songs should I include in a wedding playlist for a modern couple who grew up in the 90s?

Community Answer

Create a mix of modern hits and popular 90s songs. Consult the bride and groom for any specific songs they cherish. Consider input from close family and friends as well. Include fun dance songs, like the "Chicken Dance," and maintain a balance between thematic consistency and variety. Ensure there are songs suitable for dancing, including waltzes and other ballroom styles.

Question

Is it legal to make a playlist on Spotify and share it with friends?

Gal Barden

Community Answer

Yes. All the music on Spotify is licensed. Plus, your friends need an account to listen to the playlist, which means the artists get paid, either through advertising or subscription. It's fine to share a playlist and Spotify encourages it.
