Yeah but the change is server sided so it will stop working soon I suppose.

No. Xmanager patch unlocks premium features. So literally you're a premium user.

It depends on whether the feature is server-side restricted. For example, xManager can't set audio quality to very high.

As I mention further in the thread, I am a premium Spotify user and they have been removing lyrics from songs that used to have them recently. It may not matter if you have the features or not, if they're just going to be removing the lyrics anyway. Which makes it even shittier that they would advertise it as a premium feature, just for users to subscribe and find out none of the songs they want lyrics for have them anymore.
