So this is about Music, but it's also about the online site, and the app 
So I posted it here in technology.
From the other forum:
I will need to look more into Spotify app and get more information before I bring it up to Thing1. From a brief search (Duck Duck Go) there seems to be ways to import the iTunes playlists into Spotify. I just need to figure out the storage aspect on his cellphone. He only has 32GB, I think. Not sure if that's enough. I believe the iPod he last got is 132GB, so I need to look at see if he can add storage to the phone he has.
**Additional information - as many of you know - Thing1 has a developmental disability. He's very tech-savvy, although not in a way that's totally independent. Still, because no phone is 100% or lasts forever, there are sometimes a lot of hurdles with technology with him. So say the least.
Long story, but after my last go-round of trying to get his new Straight Talk phone straightened out -(MANY HOURS - 2 different times in December) I decided to go with a Verizon "budget" pay as you go plan. (again - long story - he cannot communicate with the idiots ST customer service - and I simply don't want to do it anymore) He is working on more autonomy and independence (in his life as an individual with DD) and there IS a Verizon store here in Calvert as well as St. Mary's, so my reasoning is - he has personal support staff who take him here and there and he's savvy enough to communicate in person - he can utilize the hours he gets every week and if he has ANOTHER phone issue - he can have them take him to the Verizon Store and those paid employees can help him solve whatever problem he has. This helps in more than a few ways: #1-It reduces MY needing to help him because he can go to the store and do it himself, #2-He sees what a PITA it can be when you break or mess up your phone, #3-He gains more autonomy and independence.
