ALAC bug still there!

ALAC bug still there!

Dear Spotify staff,

 

what's the whole point of synchronizing ALAC (Apple Loseless Audio Codec) files if the Android client can't play them back?

 

I know this bug (and missing feature) has been reported time ago, but it is still there. 

 

Every other option is better than getting a mute track every now and then: not synchronizing it at all, synchronize it from Spotify if present, transconding it to MP3 on the fly (the best, if you ask me).

 

I really hope this issue to be worked out soon.

 

Best regards

 

Gianluca
