Your streaming service disappears tonight. Which playlist do you rebuild first?
Not the biggest one. The one you could not rebuild from memory - 40 songs added over four years, no theme. Back that one up first.
Which is yours?

Deezer shipped My Deezer Year 2025 on December 1, 2025. The 2026 recap likely lands in the same window. Our post: the timing, Deezer's own eligibility wording, and how to read your listening data if you miss it.

Move your library to a new service and every song gets the same date added: today. Ten years of taste, one timestamp.

The scariest thing in music: the cancel button with your library still behind it. Downloads stop playing when a subscription lapses, and playlists stay on the old account. Move the library first, cancel second.

A transferred playlist usually comes back a little short. The gaps are predictable: live cuts, remixes, region blocks, and files that only ever lived on your laptop. Which song has never made it across for you?

Usually survives a Spotify to Apple Music move: the playlist, its order, and songs on both services under the same name. Doesn't: local files, tracks not licensed in your region, the live or remix version you picked. Check the song count.

Your all-time Spotify play counts live in one place: the Extended Streaming History file.
It can take up to 30 days to arrive after you request it.

Four songs in every library refuse to change services: the live version only one service has, the remix filed under the DJ, the MP3 from 2009, and the one your country is not licensed for. Matching is good, not magic.

Apple Music Replay missing from your Home tab? Or showing three songs when you listened to hundreds?

Your group chat still links the playlist you left behind. Copy the share link from the new service and replace the old one, pinned message included.
