Can'T Log In To Spotify. Spotify Hacked? Is It Down?

BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) — Boca Post staff much like the rest of the world was frustrated when we were logged out of Spotify today because not only did the music stop but we were unable to restore service.

Once logged out, it is impossible to log back in. When trying to log back in, the website of the popular music service tells you that there is no account associated with those credentials.

This issue has annoyed millions of users who have taken to Twitter and other social media outlets to rant about the annoyance.

Music really is a big part of many people’s lives and not being able to listen to it as you are working certainly can be very frustrating.

The outage continues. Spotify only saying that they are aware of the issues:

We should have the issues with Users logged out of Spotify fixed soon.
