I’m not sure how that would work without a unique and agreed-upon shared identifier across platforms. There’s no equivalent to referencing a song using a URI.


There are already industry standard codes for songs, albums, performers, etc: ISWC, ISRC, IPI, IPN, ISNI.

Spotify already use some of those, but I dunno if they expose via API or make it searchable.
