Great! Like I wasn't excited for the 0.3-beta release before this announcement.

Would really like to test this version soon

Hey there,

Orion, ACX, many thanks for the Spotify support in RuneAudio. That's great !

I understand that not everyone has a Spotify account, but Spotify is used by a lot of people and if, I understood, spop has an interface very close of MPD. Same time, as all major music streaming opérator expose different API, it's hard to satisfy everyone. The point is to find some balance between functionnalities and time to release

Anyway thank again you for the great work. With that news, waiting for the beta release is even a bit more hard

In terms of features, spotify is quite well set up these days. I'm obviously not expecting "app" integration or browsing recommendations or moods and all that on Rune, but I'm wondering how the "your music" idea will be organized. Spotify allows you to save albums and songs, in addition to adding them to custom playlists. Will we be able to view our saved albums and perhaps sort by different things, or how will that work? Or will it be playlists only at this point?

Okay, thanks. I saw that but wasn't sure if maybe albums are represented the same way as playlists in the spotify api. Looking at this, it appears the "Library" is different from the list of playlists: https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/g ... ed-tracks/
No idea how hard it would be to implement, but I'll just throw out my vote for albums since with streaming services I save albums much more than I create playlists.
