Ha, I hate it when apps do that. One of the main reason I got rid of Spotify and my Spotify paid subscription was because their android app gobbled all the free space it could find on a device by filling it with caches music. “Of course Spotify, I pay extra for more storage on me device so you can use it to cache songs and save a few cents on bandwidth, you’re very welcome.”

Funny, that's pretty much the only reason I pay for spotify. Having music offline is really handy when you're out and not near wi-fi.

I’m not talking about being able to download an album actively. I’m talking about Spotify using up all my devices storage to store their own cache, songs I listened to but didn’t select to be downloaded for offline listening.

Ah, fair. Though to a certain degree I still think that's helpful when I recently listened to something but forgot to download it.
I agree though that that shouldn't take up all of your storage and should definitely be toggleable.
