Before delving into too much detail and how-to, here is what I know by far: you have iPod Touch gen 5 and find it wont download Spotify because Spotify does not support iOS 9 anymore. As of “downloading older compatible version” thing, it exists, yes. With Spotify Premium, you can download Spotify music for offline listening, however, the music you downloaded is DRM protected and can only be played on that device within Spotify app, you can’t transfer them anywhere. So to sync Spotify playlists to 4th generation iPod Touch, you need a tool to download DRM-free songs from Spotify.
Nowadays, more and more people realize the importance of exercise. Many of them exercise 3~5 times a week. As music is the best companion no matter if you are running outdoors or inside on a treadmill, people would like to use a small and lightweight device such as iPod nano, iPod shuffle or Mighty instead of a heavy and valuable cellphone in this case.
Referring to music, Spotify is simply a radio service that allows people to enjoy great musical experience digitally and keeps being popular since 2008. Regardless of what cellphone or computer you may be using, Spotify allows you to access millions of songs online and share them with friends for an awesome experience.
However, many subscribers are disturbed by the problem that Spotify is mainly a copyright-protected music streaming service that doesn’t allow you to play Spotify’s streaming music on unauthorized playback device. So apparently,even if you are a subscriber, you still can't burn Spotify music to CD or play Spotify music on any portable MP3 player like iPod.
