Public usage of Spotify

Hello spotify community.

 

I'm here on behalf of youth services of the city of Lahti, Finland.

 

I know that spotify is for "personal and non-commercial" use BUT,

if we have proper licences for playing music in public and we are a non-profit organization, is it ok to use spotify in our youth centers?

@Daniel is correct. If you have the required licensing you may not be breaking any laws/copyright however it is still against the Spotify terms of service.

Hi,

 

Unfortunately not as it's still a violation of Licence & therefore the Terms & Conditions.

Thanks for your answers, they were exactly the answers I anticipated.

I just wondered since our youth centre activities are non-commercial and we got the proper licences for copyright related issues.. I guess we'll have to settle for something more complicated services.
