Same here. It means that you're not so tied to a Spotify 'library' or

I have pretty much switched to Qobuz now. I cancelled my Spotify Premium

The Simple Library Views plugin might help with your Ballroom
'sub-library'. My partner's musical taste is rather different to mine
(some uncharitable people say I have no taste!), and this plugin allows
me to identify the music she likes and makes a subset library view. It
works well, but
