Hi, I'm one of the spotifyd maintainers, happy to answer any questions people have - though I'm coming to this thread awfully late...

We recently cut a new release for the first time in over a year, which is very exciting for all of us (and I'm guessing why the project has been submitted here now :D)

any ideas to add reporting playback to spotify servers? it isn't fair if you ask me? you're forced to use premium but you are not even helping the artists

the artists don't get their royalties when using Spotifyd

This uses librespot for the actual communication with Spotify's servers.

Note that to get it to support Spotify Free, you need to compile a custom librespot with this part of the code commented out, that checks for Spotify Premium: https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/blob/6dc7a11b09b5...

And then use this with spotifyd instead of the original.
