My Question or Issue

Hey,

I had a question regarding what Spotify's API can do.
Lets say I'm making a musical game in Unity and would like to give the user the ability to choose whatever song they wanted.

Could I use Spotify's API in a way that would allow me, to allow my clients to "download" songs, which then can be played and used for FX(Sound visualizers), and would this require me having or my clients having premium?
If not what can the API do?

Integrating Spotify into a game is prohibited by the Developer Terms/Policy.

So now what?
I would be willing to pay royalties. Because I kinda need this.

Quick confirmation, if they say yes I can use this in my game for money? By using this in my game I mean using the web API to retrieve track data (especially the audio data) yes?

Yes, that's correct.
