Thanks for your quick answer. I perfectly understand the reasoning behind your choice to stick with the airplay solution. Especially as far as equality between the services is concerned (but at the same time airplay is Apple propriety and a pretty bad example in this respect). As far as fully featured clients are concerned though, I rather care about audio quality and a reasonable ease of use. I guess this might be true for many users tinkering with raspberry audio. Volumio for example allows a simple access to spotify playlists, which I find sufficient. And as far as equality is concerned... hey, it is possible for everyone to stream via airplay Just wanted to voice these concerns from a users point of view. Best regards Patrick

Dear Tim Sorry for bringing this up again. Just discovered Moode and like it very much. It seems the best Raspberry audio player solution to me at the moment. The only thing I struggle with, is integration of Spotify... While the airplay solution might be comfortable, I think it also brings disadvantages as well... I am on a linux machine. Setting up Pulseaudio-Airplay is rather tricky here, and is not very reliable (similar on Android). I am also concerned about audio quality, sending the signal all the way through spotify app, pulseaudio, airplay and again through the raspberry seems not very good from a audiophile's point of view. There is always the need to run a second machine as the player. I think it would be great to have Moode stream directly from Spotify (or other services like Tidal, Deezer etc if possible) as a standalone player for the above reasons. Would make it just perfect for me. Thank you. Patrick
