Summary
This tutorial introduces the best alternative to playing Spotify Music on Clementine. Use UkeySoft Spotify Music Converter to download Spotify songs to MP3, AAC, so that you can search and play your local Spotify music with Clementine Music Player.

The Clementine Music Player is a full-service audio player (based on Amarok 1.4) that lets you search and play local music. The overall use is simple - when you select a folder containing music, Clementine scans your collection and automatically organizes the songs by artist and album. You can easily create playlists by dragging songs into the queue. In addition, the smart playlist feature can generate random playlists immediately or according to your listening habits. Others like it because it creates dynamic playlists. Clementine supports a variety of popular online services (Ampache, Google Play Music, Spotify, Soundcloud), allowing you to incorporate online radio stations (Jamendo, Icecast), podcasts and other online content into your playlists. Clementine is available for macOS, Windows and Linux.

While Spotify music can be played on the Clementine music player, some users complain that it is impossible to create a Spotify plugin on Clementine due to some connection errors. Is there a more stable way to use Spotify Music on Clementine?

Why not try to download Spotify tracks online and transfer them to the Clementine music player for playback instead of using the Spotify plugin to listen to Spotify songs on Clementine. Maybe you think it's impossible, as only Spotify Premium can download songs offline, and once you close the Premium subscription, all downloaded songs won't work because all Spotify music is in DRM-protected Ogg format.

UkeySoft Spotify Music Converter is a professional Spotify Music converter that supports downloading Spotify music to unprotected audio formats, including MP3, AAC, WAV or FLAC, and then you can use Clementine Music Player to search and play your local Spotify music. Another benefit of UkeySoft is that it can convert Apple Music songs in batches with up to 5x faster conversion speed and keep the lossless quality. Last but not least, you can download Spotify songs to your computer for free, even if you are a Spotify free user. Here is the tutorial on how to play Spotify music on Clementine Music Player without Premium by using UkeySoft Spotify Music Converter.
