armhf Spotify library for DIY projects

Me and many others have bought inexpensive ARM based hardware for media center use. Sadly most Linux distributions for these platforms are built with hardware floating point calculation only, and the Spotify library for ARM is software only.

 

Would you be kind enough to compile an armhf version of libspotify for us? Based on the number of orders on the Raspberry Pi platform alone I would expect the potential number of Premium service users of this library to be 100.000+.

Hello! Sorry for the delay on updating this but we’re pleased to announce the beta release of libspotify 12.1.103 for hardfloat armv6, allowing native support for platforms like the Raspberry Pi. You can find more info here: http://devnews.spotify.com/2013/01/22/libspotify-12-for-hardfloat-armv6-raspberry-pi-beta/ Thanks!

Let me put it very simple: adding this small change would convince me to switch to Premium and start using Pi as not just XBMC but also Spotify platform. +1 kudos to the initiator of this great idea!

I've been a premium user for over 2 years now. I bought a raspberry pi and a gertboard for the sole purpose of turning it into a custom made music ("hardware" spotify client + ability to play internet radio). I would very happy to see a hard-float version of libSpotify!

Just got my  raspberry pi, after reading numerous forums think this would make a lot of people happy....

This feature would be awsome! You could make a marveoulous USP with full Rasp support!

This would be great, would live to run SpotiMC and mopidy on my Rasberry Pi.

Please put some effort into this, you would make a lot of people very happy 🙂

Spotify was the main reason for testing Raspberry Pi, so looking forward for this to happen. You know it's true 😃

So, any updates from the Spotify girls and boys? You can do it! 😃

This is the one feature that would allow me chuck out my noisy old laptop-turned-HTPC and replace it with our cool quiet and low-power  Raspberry Pi.
