6. Interactive Experience: The lyrics are not only static text but are interactive. Users can click on specific lines to start the song from that point, making it easy to find and play favorite parts of songs.
7. Community Contribution: Musixmatch allows users to contribute and correct lyrics, ensuring the information remains accurate and up-to-date. This crowdsourcing model helps maintain a comprehensive and precise lyrics database.
8. Language Support: The lyrics feature supports multiple languages, catering to Spotify’s diverse user base. This is particularly beneficial for non-English speaking users who want to understand and sing along to songs in different languages.
This expansion aligns with Spotify's goal to enhance the user experience and make its platform more engaging and user-friendly.
