Will Spotify still be for Linux 32-bit in the future?

Solved!

Will Spotify still be for Linux 32-bit in the future?

Google Chrome will soon stop updating the 32 bit version on March 2016. Because Spotify is based on chromium, will Spotify be 64-bit only, too?

Hey @user-removed,

 

 

From what I saw in the Linux client, everything is embedded in ( chromium, ffmpeg and so on ).

That means the installer comes with modified Chromium inside. Even if the Chromium no longer supports 32-bit, Spotify will keep running.

 

P.S. Spotify is not based on Chromium, but on CEF ( Chromium embedded framework )
