8trhacker Extension

Spotify allows users to listen to a huge library of songs on demand, but discovering good new music can be difficult. 8tracks has a wide variety of curated mixes created and reviewed by users, but playlists can only be listened to sequentially, songs' titles are not revealed until they begin playing, and skips are limited.

8trhacker dumps 8tracks mixes into your Spotify queue, where you can listen to the songs whenever you want, make a Spotify playlist, share with your friends, etc.

A. Lenn (ID: 0000009a23107fed) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/16/2015 Doesn't seem to work anymore, 8tracks changed it's presentation and the buttons from this app aren't available anymore

Christina Novello (ID: 000000247d348e14) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/12/2015 It's a nice idea, too bad it doesn't work. Couldn't figure out how it worked at first. Tried signing out & back into both 8tracks & spotify and reloading.. finally saw the buttons but when it opened spotify it said 'link not found.' Bummer

Ofir Dahan (ID: 0000008fb1159cff) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 04/15/2014 Spotify gives the "Link not found" message when trying to create playlists. This would be an amazing extension if it worked :/

Mike Schwartz (ID: 0000000e655ab5ec) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/08/2013 Is there anyway to make a Spotify web-app compatible version of this? I'm running on a chromebook, and the link from the 8Tracks UI launches an external request, when I'm using the Spotify web player

Araam Borhanian (ID: 0000004b0976fee1) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 09/02/2013 Reloading is required like everyone said. However, clicking the all tracks in the mix button doesn't work. The first button does though. Problem is more with 8tracks than these guys, but still doesn't get the job done.
