Spotify is a popular music streaming service around the world. It is a freemium service. Signing up for Spotify as a free member and then you can access to its vast music library with more than 100 million songs. Or you can upgrade to its premium plan to get extra features, such as listen to ad-free Spotify music, enjoy high-quality Spotify songs, download music from Spotify for offline listening, etc.
Currently, Spotify offers three plans for premium subscribers – Individual ($11.99/month, 1 account), Duo ($16.99/month, 2 accounts), and Family ($19.99/month, up to 6 accounts). For anyone who hasn’t already tried Premium, Spotify usually offers a 3-month free Spotify Free trial, but now it extends the free trial period to three months.
During the trial, you can unlock all the features limited to premium users only. When the free trial comes to an end, you should pay the service to get premium features. As a result, a lot of people download plenty of songs from Spotify during the trial period and are wondering whether they can keep playing the downloaded music from Spotify after cancelling the subscription. What happens to your Spotify downloads after the free trial? How can you keep the downloaded Spotify songs forever? We are going to give you the best answer and solution in this article.
After the free trial period, you will automatically be charged the monthly price of the Spotify Premium plan you chose and the payment method you provided will automatically be charged that amount unless you cancel the subscription beforehand.
If you continue the service, you can enjoy all the features as usual; but if you cancel the subscription, you’ll be back to the free plan as soon as the subscription expires. In other words, you’ll lose access to all the features restricted to premium users, including the songs you downloaded during your free trial.
Even though you are a Spotify Premium subscriber, you don’t own any songs. What Spotify Premium offers is much like a rental service. The Spotify songs you downloaded for offline listening are not saved as local files on your computer. You should continuously pay the service to make the downloaded Spotify songs available for offline listening all the time. In a nutshell, you can’t keep playing the downloaded Spotify songs offline after cancelling the subscription, unless you find a way to download music from Spotify to your local computer within the free trial.

The major difference between Spotify free and premium users using Sidify is that Spotify Premium subscribers can get output audios in higher quality.
