Because it is a bit problematic with the remote. And the text onscreen
is unreadable on my old television.

And yes, but I'm happy to pay for a premium account for that. And the
authors have released the client anonymously, thats true, but since
Spotify have not blocked the premium access, it could seem that they
are not too offended by the client themselves.

I did not realize that it was against list policy to discuss this, as
since Spotify allow access to the client my belief were that it was
not illegal. They had a bad reaction at first, but since patching up a
seemingly unsecure protocol, they are letting anyone with premium
accounts through.

However I will drop the subject now.
