Company using Spotify for office

[ceminstitute]

Hi.

I'm helping someone setting up an office and they would like to use Spotify to have some music in the office.

Which kind of account should they use?

@ceminstitute Hey there,

The terms of use stipulate that spotify gives "limited, non-exclusive, revocable permission to access the Content for personal, non-commercial, entertainment purposes". This means that public streaming is a breach of that.

If you believe that doing that would be breaching spotify's terms, I'd suggest contacting the support team to clarify that: https://support.spotify.com/au/contact-spotify-support/

What the company want to do is to play some music among the employees it is not a public place, but inside an office. 

That may of course be considered public, but it isn't much different from each employee using their personal account on their phones with a small speaker or headset.

Don't spotify have a solution for a company to do this rather then letting each employee take care of their own music?

@ceminstitute the issue is that the stream is being used (passively) by the personnel of the office and visitors

however, you can purchase spotify business here:
