how to download saved songs on spotify premium desktop

My husband just released his album today and you can find his music on every platform. I was certainly confused when I first started using Spotify, as well, but now I pay for the Duo subscription so my husband and I have access to whatever songs pop into our heads on a whim and we spend most of our days with Spotify on, playing podcasts.

It is my understanding that music saved through iTunes into the iPhone music app sometimes disappears if the album is removed (by the artist or label or apple) from the iTunes Store (this is what my friend told me about his experience) so if you want to keep your music, have it on your computer, in a separate file you can play on QuickTime or VLC or similar (Does windows still have their awesome player?) or burn your favourite mixes to your CDs, or save them to a USB. These save to your computer as playable files (usually. You may purchase each song individually or an entire album. Now, if you want to burn a CD you will need to find these artists on Bandcamp (which pays the artist directly) or if they are more popular artists not found on Bandcamp, you will need to download to your computer via iTunes, GooglePlay, or whatever else available to download songs. I also have access to all my stats via Spotify for Artists. I know this, because I am an artist and my label pays me. Yes, every time you listen to a song, whoever owns the song gets paid. What are you paying for? The operating costs, and the artist or label. You have access while you are paying, but the movie you rent does not belong to you, it is part of a library. or even easier to compare these days: Netflix (though their available media rotates, Spotify’s, generally speaking, does not). It is *almost* like renting a video from blockbuster. You either pay a monthly subscription to access all the music in the world, or with a free account, the advertisements pay that access fee for you. You cannot access the files for personal use. It is not like making a one time purchase of a CD and owning it forever.

Spotify is not a source to download music. I think the answer most, if not all, people are looking for here is this. Where are my downloaded Spotify songs on my PC?.
