> - **Some users have reported that Spotify suspended their accounts after using Votify.** Use it at your own risk.
> - **You may not be able to download songs if your account is too new.** In this case, you can try downloading songs in AAC quality with a .wvd file, which uses a different download method that may work for new accounts.
