Just a few days ago we announced that Virtual DJ has Pulselocker integration. It turns out that the company has been working on a lot more than that: although Atomix hasn’t announced it yet, both Spotify and Deezer now work with Virtual DJ, too.
Download Spotify for Mac to stream and share with ease the music of your choice, or work with your friends on collaborative playlists. Spotify has had 10 updates within the past 6 months. Die-hard music lovers already know about Shazam. Others should know that it is the most popular app that helps you identify songs that soothes your ears. It is another great app that is also compatible with Spotify. When Spotify and Shazam are linked, a playlist appears on Spotify with all the identified songs from Shazam. If you are a premium member there is something more for you. I recently got a new 2017 Ford Focus that has Sync3 and the app connection with Spotify can be patchy. I paired my phone (Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo) with the car and the car found Spotify in the apps, all good. Now, sometimes when I switch the car on, Spotify is found in the app list and other times no apps are found at all!
While both are – we are told – still in development and being tested and improved, we can confirm that the services are indeed both presently functional within Virtual DJ 8 (when the software is set in preferences to “early”), meaning any Virtual DJ users with either a Spotify or a Deezer paid-for subscription can play music from those services within the program.
This, from the Virtual DJ forum:
Apps That Work With Spotify 2017 Year
“Spotify (and also Deezer) has recently been included as a content provider, so you can play Spotify content from within Virtual DJ
but you need to upgrade to the pro version to use it.

“You should also remember that Spotify isn’t licensed for playing in public, and since it’s your private Spotify account that is used to get the content, these rules still apply even when you play Spotify content using Virtual DJ. In this case Virtual DJ is just an alternative player”
Virtual DJ leading the way with streaming…
Taken alongside Pulselocker and its own white-labelled ContentUnlimited streaming service, that means Virtual DJ has unrivalled streaming music support, with the four services it supports covering everything from audio to video and even karaoke files.
But of course, whether or not you can or can’t use them legally is a huge grey area that the industry really does need to sort out at some point.
