    Now don't take this as gospel, cos I pay a fiver a month, but I think if you set up a free account, you should be able to see it then. If you use the free one to listen to music, you'll get adverts.

    Thanks peter.
    What I did was click on the first tune , hit Ctrl + A to highlight all songs , draged the list to excel, cleared the hyperlink formating , ta da, I now have a list I can work with.
    Its a 4 hour disco with a 11 hour playlist , so plenty of scope.... , I much prefer it if people sent a list in word or excel , saves a load of time

    Cheers

    Absolutely. Recently I had a series of scans of handwritten ones. Ah well.

    That's cos you're profligate. I'm on the cheapest one that gets rid of the adverts/ does what I want. I know there's a dearer package.

    I get them all the time... Never massively long ones though.
    The BIG advantage over a typed up list is you know for sure 100% that is the track they want.

    So there is no confusion when the client puts "shot through the heart - Bon Jovi" and you play it only to be told they actually wanted "you give love a bad name"... Okay everybody knows that nobody even cares about shot through the heart but you get the point.

    And I pay £9.99 a month! Which I claim as a business expense! Well, listening to music makes it a vital business tool!

    I use Djay software by Algorridim which has Spotify incorporated into it and can literally play the gig from the playlist if necessary.
