It seems like quite a lot of tracks has disappeared in this update as well. :/


The Spotify music database is normally updated independently of the application.

As for the actual content, about two weeks ago I could see around 7.2 million songs as a user in Sweden. Today I can see about 7.4 million songs. Is there anything in particular that you know was removed?


I'm seeing grayed out tracks on songs by Freddie Wadling, Eva Cassidy, Dione Taylor, Lee Hazlewood, Tupac Shakur, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, U96, Land Shark and Moby to name a few.

But you're right: all in all they're growing which is great.


The Dylan was pulled quite a few months ago, and in fact, some has been coming back-- they just added "Tell Tale Signs" not too long ago. Also, McCartney pulled most of his stuff a month or two back-- there seems to be a dispute with EMI.
