Yes! It always does the loading spin animation for like 10 seconds before it shows me my downloaded album. And some albums just never work at all. I have to go online and then offline again just to make it work at all, which defeats the purpose of being offline in the first place.

I just started my free qobuz trial though, and canceled my Spotify account. I mentioned their CEO as the reason I canceled.

The offline features on Spotify are abysmal. Half my downloaded albums don’t even work. It’s the primary reason I’m looking for an alternative. How can an app with such a high market share be this shitty?

Only if it’s profitable or they’re forced to do so through legislation. Otherwise they won’t even try.
