Michael, a few questions for you or anyone else who has the answer. I read on the Developers forum the following you posted in response to a Spotify question some weeks ago:
> LibSpotify has been considered deprecated since 2015 and will be shut > down in 2017 > > All current spotify plugins are libspotify based, so they will cease to > function... You responded: >Yep, that will be the end. Unfortunately for the Radio/Touch, too, as >they are using libspotify in the firmware. >Who's taking the challenge to come up with the first librespot based >plugin (https://github.com/plietar/librespot)?... My first question is when you updated the Spotify app a year or so ago, that this update used the new librespot library so for those of us using Spotify through the MSB interface and running a radio or touch we would be OK. Your recent post seems to indicate that the hardware firmware will need an update which is unlikely, correct? My second question is do you have a date when we will loose Spotify and are there any other options available? I read about Ickstream but it doesn't seem to have a Spotify implementation fully developed yet or even if it is still being supported.
