Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Spotify is a popular music streaming site that gives you access to all your favourite songs. Spotify has also a Spotify client for Linux, that helps you use the spotify service better. The latest version available is Spotify 0.9.4, which has been released a while ago.
In this article I will show you how to install Spotify 0.9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander, Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal, Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 16 Petra, Linux Mint 14 Nadia, Linux Mint 13 Maya, Elementary OS 0.2 Luna, Debian Wheezy and Debian Jessie.
Because it is available via the Spotify repository, installing Spotify 0.9.4 on the listed Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS and Debian systems is easy. All you have to do is add the repository and the key to your system, update the local repository index and install the spotify-client package. Like this:
$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb-src http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 94558F59
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install spotify-client
Optional, to uninstall the spotify-client, do:
$ sudo apt-get remove spotify-client
