I don't own any "Spotify Connect" compatible devices but if I understand
correctly, "Spotify Connect" makes it possible to use the Spotify App on
your phone, tablet, or desktop to play and queue tracks on your "Spotify
Connect" compatible devices. (A bit like Netflix using Chromecast?). I
think this would make the Spotify experience easier than using a plugin
on Squeezebox (or any other streaming network player like Sonos). It
certainly would make things more straightforward for visitors trying to
use Spotify with Squeezebox... :-)

Best regards,
Dennis.
