[Desktop][Other] Full-size album artwork

[HellishAbyss]

Musicians put in a lot of effort to their album artwork, so it's a shame that on our desktop devices with nice screens we can't see then in higher resolution than a handful of hundred pixels square. See attachement for a proposed screen – click on a piece of album art while in album view (currently this does nothing) and see it expanded to the size of the spotify window.

Agreed, this always bugged me

I don't think I've ever actively wanted this while using spotify, but as soon as I read this suggestion I loved it! A "stretch goal" would be to include additional artwork, liner notes, etc. that some albums provide.

OP i think you're the only person who understands me.

I don't understand why this hasn't been there from the begining in the first place!

Definitely need the option to display the album art nice and big!

Despite the fact this has been requested now for over 10 years. Amneisia knows no bounds...

Really hope this goes through, i've been sitting here pressing crtl + a bunch of times. But that kinda messes up the whole UI haha.
