For a few months now while listening to spotify I’ve noticed a song will come up and I’ll think “I thought I already ‘liked’ this song?” But wasn’t positive because sometimes there are multiple issues of the same album (anniversary, remixes etc) so maybe I had liked a different version or something.

But I have a couple playlists where I only add to the playlist when I’m listening to “Liked Songs” on shuffle, sort of a best of the best. And I’ve observed there are songs on that playlist which are no longer “liked.”

Anyone else experience this?

Not sure why they would do this - could be a bug of some kind. Or could be they’re trying to promote plays of songs where they don’t have to pay out as many royalties, or someone is paying them to promote certain acts.

    I don’t know if songs being removed since I probably wouldn’t notice, but sometimes if I like a version of a song that’s not the album version (a radio edit or live performance) it will be replaced with the standard studio recording.
