    Can I just make a playlist on the internet?

  • Question
    Are there any more apps that can make a playlist that is free?
    Community Answer
    Most apps are free, but typically only play songs that must be leased or licensed by the app provider. iTunes, Amazon Music and Groove are examples of free apps that require a subscription and/or purchase for most songs they provide. If you have a blog or a web page/site management tool or app, you can create a playlist that links to music on YouTube or Vimeo. Many music publishers enter into license agreements with YouTube or Vimeo that permit the use of the songs they control in exchange for a percentage of any advertising or other revenues.

  • Question
    What kind of songs should I play at a wedding? The couple is modern but grew up during the 90s.
    Community Answer
    Do a mix of both modern and 90s songs. Ask the bride and groom if there are any songs they love or are special to them. Do the same with the close family and friends. Always include the chicken dance. Adding some other dance songs like that is good. Try to keep a theme but still have variety. Songs that can easily be danced to are great. Throw in some waltzes and other ballroom dances too!

    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.
