[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify Spotify] is a commercial music streaming service providing digital rights management-restricted content from record labels including Sony, EMI, Warner Music Group and Universal.


'''Spotify''' is a commercial music streaming service providing digital rights management-restricted content from record labels including Sony, EMI, Warner Music Group and Universal. Launched in October 2008 by Swedish startup Spotify AB, the service had approximately 10 million users as of 15 September 2010, about 2.5 million of whom were paying users. Total users reached 20 million by December 2012, 5 million of whom pay a monthly subscription fee that varies based on locale.
<!--T:2-->
Spotify operates under a freemium model (basic services are free, while additional features are offered via paid subscriptions). Spotify makes its revenues by selling premium streaming subscriptions to users and advertising placements to third parties.  


The system is currently available using Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Windows Phone, S60 (Symbian), webOS, Samsung Smart TV, Squeezebox, Boxee, Sonos, WD TV, Roku, MeeGo, Telia Digital-tv, Openpandora and TiVo. As of December 2013 Spotify is not available in the Windows Store for Windows 8.


Music can be browsed by artist, album, record label, genre or playlist as well as by direct searches. On computers, a link allows the listener to purchase selected material via partner retailers.
=Installing Spotify= <!--T:3-->


A six-month free trial period is activated upon account registration or first login with a Facebook account, allowing the user to listen to an unlimited amount of music supported by visual and radio-style advertising. After the trial, Spotify has a listening limit of 10 hours per month, divided into 2.5-hour weekly portions (unused hours carry over). The only locations exempt from this rule are the United States, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand where ad-supported unlimited streaming continues on Spotify Free. An "Unlimited" subscription removes advertisements and time limits and a "Premium" subscription introduces extra features such as higher bitrate streaming, offline access to music and mobile app access. Users can try Spotify Premium for 48 hours by logging into Spotify Mobile for the first time, or get a 30-day trial for their first month.[25] An active Facebook account is required to use Spotify if the user has signed up using Facebook, but as of 30 August 2012 the option to make a Spotify username was again offered. Subscriptions are restricted to people with credit/debit cards or PayPal accounts registered in certain countries. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify]

Spotify can be installed via a variety of methods based on your personal preferences.


{{note| '''You can install Spotify native application as Spotify Linux Preview or in Wine environment as Spotify client for Windows.'''}}


= Installing Spotify Linux Preview =
==Installing from the Arch User Respository(AUR)== <!--T:5-->


== NEW installation guide ==
<!--T:6-->
Spotify can be installed from the [[Arch User Repository|AUR]] using your favorite package manager or the command:
pamac build spotify


Install libgcrypt15 from AUR repositories, the official version in manjaro (update 2014-01-26) is 1.6, not compatible with spotify. We will need also some openssl package.


yaourt -S openssl098
==Installing as Flatpak Application== <!--T:7-->
yaourt -S libgcrypt15


Then install spotify from AUR and ffmpeg-compat (recommended dependency, needed for playing local files)
<!--T:8-->
If you have [[Flatpak|flatpak]] installed you can install Spotify with:
flatpak install spotify


yaourt -S spotify
sudo pacman -S ffmpeg-compat


Now we need to link some libraries

And that's it! If you are using Xfce (it should work for other environments also), the way to configure media keys is via xfce shortcuts, using dbus commands (in order: play/pause, stop, next, previous)
