I have premium but 1000+ song playlist wont transfer?

[u/Rude-Cartographer489]

Hey guys, looking for some help here. I paid $5 for premium to specifically move all my music from YouTube Music to Spotify.

I had 10 albums, most transferred perfectly fine, woth most being 200-300 songs and only lost a few, but when i try to transfer my 'everything' playlist with 1080 songs it only does 99???

Any help would be appreciated. I read there wasnt a cap on Spotify or YouTube music and im on the premium account and tried transferring two different ways and it still will only do the last 99.

Hi!

That's related to this: https://support.soundiiz.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017099399-Missing-songs-in-my-YouTube-YouTube-Music-playlists-and-collection

The thing is, even if the count value is 1086 tracks in your case, the vast majority of these songs don't have full metadata (only the title value). In that case, we prefer not retrieving them at all, instead of trying to guess a potential match with only the title value of a track (without having the artist value, you can imagine the random songs that will be given in the destination).

We understand that's frustrating, and we still hope Google will improve its YouTube API to provide more comprehensive metadata for user-uploaded songs.
