It can’t, but I’m sure that wouldn’t stop Spotify from raising a stink if they see it being bulk imported. I’d imagine this would be similar to OpenStreetMaps and Google Maps; they probably could scrape and bulk import missing info, but they restrict it to licensed sources and user edits to limit liability and enforce quality.
In cartography the expression of the uncopyrightable data is itself copyrighted (e.g. colors used, thickness of ligns) so maybe certain data fields are owned by Spotify (e.g. genre, description, history, song notes)
I thought metadata couldn’t be copyrighted though?

that’s a fascinating typo.
You know, I thought it didn’t look right, but I typed it into Google and it didn’t autocorrect so I went with it.
Rhymes with signs, it must be right.
