It's really more about maintainable playlists, tbh. How are you going to scale your playlist management if you can't properly review changes and see history to avoid repeating mistakes of the past?


Author of the provider here! I've been maintaining a sync of my Spotify liked songs for a while now using this terraform provider: https://github.com/conradludgate/spotify-library

I wanted to add a way for it to get the song names in there, but I never got around to it


Yeah, maintainability is key.

A lot of people like just managing playlists with a simple graphical console.

This works fine if you just want a playlist now, but you risk things like forgetting why the songs were added to a playlist; or forgetting which songs were in a playlist if the playlist accidentally got deleted.

Sure, describing it with Terraform may be more effort up front, but it saves effort in the long run.
