The above-mentioned 7 methods are useful to transfer playlists between Spotify accounts. However, you may find some Spotify songs are greyed out on the playlist over time on account of the copyright or expired Spotify subscriptions. To keep those songs available offline in your library forever, you'd better use a reliable tool to convert them to MP3 files or other unprotected files that will be saved locally permanently.

Likewise, this great tool enables you to customize output parameters embracing the bitrate, audio channels, sample rate, and others to promote the output quality of Spotify audio. Afterward, you are enabled to transfer converted Spotify playlists to any other account and even all devices without any problem.
