General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
An open source Spotify client running as a UNIX daemon.
Spotifyd streams music just like the official client, but is more lightweight and supports more platforms. Spotifyd also supports the Spotify Connect protocol, which makes it show up as a device that can be controlled from the official clients.
Note: Spotifyd requires a Spotify Premium account.
