Spotify Playlist File

These BNK files are called Spotify playlists in a proprietary file format developed by Spotify, Ltd. . Spotify is a music streaming application with versions for Windows PCs, Mac OS X, and Linux computers, as well as iOS and Android mobile devices.

A BNK file contains references, metadata details, and locations of music tracks that have been added to the Spotify playlist. These .bnk files do not store the actual audio files. Instead, the Spotify application loads these music tracks and streams them upon opening these BNK files.
