sure you can, but the question is, if you can listen to them any way why
download them at all. You can even get spotify for mobile devices now.

 Spotify is letting people listen to their fav tracks, this is great!

 Surely this mean that you are able to capture these song and save them
 on one's hard drive.  Would this not be a problem and is there open
 source software to achieve this?

My car doesn't have Spotify. ;)

Audacity would likely do it, but then if you're going to the trouble
of recording it why not skip Spotify completely and get the music from
different source?

You know spotify premium, which is a few quid a month lets you save
the tracks for offline use :)

I'd have thought you could probably use something like Audacity (or a 
command line application, maybe arecord) to capture the audio as long as 
your sound card has an internal mixer (most do, unfortunately my laptop 
doesn't).  You'd have to turn off system sounds though (such as e-mail 
notification jingles, beeps, dings etc as they would get recorded too).
