So I thought, if the feeling is what I’m after, I can easily recreate the effect right on my MacBook and it wouldn’t even be that hard....

can’t find your favorite local music files in there. I am a fan of Bollywood music but there are many albums that are not available on Spotify due to same issue.

There are multiple reasons behind the behavior. Someone might have changed the default browser on Chrome. The prime factor behind the search engine change is browser hijacking code or extensions.
