Like other music streaming services, Spotify allows you to create playlists (manual and automatic). But, the service adds an additional possibility to this feature: blend playlist.
As its name suggests, the blend playlist feature allows two users to combine their playlists on Spotify. However, according to multiple reports, this feature is having issues in recent days (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
