yes ive had Spotify for years but i had issues changing my personal details on it so i deleted it and opened a new account relevent to new phone number etc ..
since reloading the new account everything coincidently runs slower on my Laptop.
i decided to delete Spotify today and my Laptop has returned to its pre-Christmas speeds?
just onwdering if anyone else has had or knows of people with issues like i have explained?
does anyone use another free online app to listen to new music that i could try as im not interested in returning to Spotify.

^^No issues for me either. Maybe try Deezer.

i did listen to one album, Barry Gibb & Friends, on Youtube but that was annoying, the full album wasnt on there, had to keep searching the individual tracks
will check out Deezer later today...
okay
thanks peeps
maybe it was a glitch on my end
i did run several virus checks after the fact and they came back 'virus free' so i might just have to grin and bare it in the future

so i installed the app, run an anti virus scan
listened to an album and turned off my laptop
turned it back on again a while ago and my laptop froze on me.
eventually got it to unfreeze, run another scan and all was okay
but i uninstalled Spotify and everything appears to be working normal again.
