Select “ File” > “ Library” > “ Export Playlist…” to export the playlist to a text file.Select the playlist you wish to export.From the “ Devices” section, expand the selections under your device.Connect your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to your computer.Note: This tutorial has been revised to reflect iTunes version 12. Fortunately, I was able to find one rather quickly. What a bummer! I just had to find a workaround for this. Nor will it allow you to drag individual songs to from an iPhone to a computer playlist. iTunes doesn’t let you copy a playlist from your iPhone to your local computer. I then selected the playlist on my iPhone and tried to drag and drop them to the playlist on the computer. It takes about five minutes and works really well.I attached my iPod to my computer, fired up iTunes and created a new playlist called “Rawk”. Instead of using this process to import things to Google Music, use the official Spotify Rdio Import tool. Their new releases page is actually mostly up to date. They have more music than Rdio did, or that Google Music has. The queue is persistent between sessions. I’m trying out Spotify Premium again for the first time since I started using Rdio, and they’ve paid attention.

So, I was going to update this post with instructions on how to import your official Rdio export into Google Music, but… don’t do that. They do very strange things with explicit lyrics.The Web UI is just broken enough to be really frustrating, and all the web apps for it are hamstrung by the web’s brokenness.Their new releases page is bad and not updated with actual new releases.Google Music has a limit of 1,000 songs per playlist, so your collection will be broken up, but at least you’ll have all your songs!
Now you can follow the gmusic-playlist directions to import all those CSVs.

Say yes and wait for all of them to download (15,000 songs per file). Chrome will probably ask you if this site can download multiple files. My 35,000 song collection took 3 CSV files, and about 5 minutes to generate and download them. It’s going to generate CSV files for your entire collection. Depending on the size of your library, this could take a while. It has some dependencies, so you’ll need to follow the README instructions carefully.Īfter you’ve gotten those installed, you need to do the following to save your playlists and collection in a format that’ll work with the importer:

Sign up for the Google Music free trial.First, you need to install the Rdio Enhancer Chrome Add-on.Here’s what you need (sorry, this is going to require some Terminal time): It took a lot of experimentation, but I found a way to export my playlists (and entire collection) from Rdio to Google Music. Asking around, it looked like Google Music was the next best option.Īnd then the problem was, how to I get almost 5 years of musical history from Rdio into Google Music? All those favorites playlists from 2011-2015, the road trip playlists, the special occasion playlists… all of those will just disappear. I tried Apple Music, but quickly ran into limitations (song limit, my patience with their awful UI, horrible apps for importing songs, etc). They ran out of money, sold all their assets in a fire sale and have given their users about a week to find a new music home.
