If GTA V made use of Spotify integration, the game would go to a whole new level

I really believe that's one of the bigger oversights with this game.

For several years, since GTA 4, people asked for Rockstar to allow us to use our own music saved on our console hard drives to create our own stations. I guess they have their reasons for not doing it....

But Spotify(specifically Spotify Premium) would've worked even better IMO, seems like to me they could've integrated your playlists(radio stations) directly from your Spotify account. It really would add a TON more hours of replay value to the game b/c you wouldnt jump in a car and immediately turn the radio off or get tired of hearing the same songs if you're making a long drive. And adding different music would create a different vibe within the game.

They already allow you to tag songs within the game and then it shows up on Rockstar Social club site with a Spotify link, so I dont see why they just can't implement it in the game via a patch.

They could've made a ton more money off of this b/c alot of ppl would subscribe to Spotify Premium just to be able to have unlimited music at their disposal on GTA, and Rockstar could've gotten a kickback

Nah i'd rather have the music come directly from my HD not a stupid app, like on the station list have something called HD as a selectable station and be able to deep dive into the station and customize your own play list by artist, genre, and album

They seem to put some effort and money into the radio stations so I don't know if they ever will do that, but that problem they had with Daz might make them rethink.

Decided to take her out for a lil spin. Maybe hit Blaine County and enjoy the countryside. I jumped in and this was playing.



:ahh: Music for the soul!! I come out of my apt at Del Perro. Glide to a stop. What a beautiful day in Los Santos! :myman: I pause to set a waypoint. Come back to the game and. .

I'm surprised they never had an "iPod" for your character that you could access from the phone. Woulda been a creative feature
