Add background music (for ex. Spotify)

Sally

It would be amazing if there's a way to share music or add background office music. And moderator or people could change stations.

yeah, like if you could set up a radio in a private space/desk space, so when someone walked into the area they could listen along with the owner of the space

Because of copyright restriction and performance rights, it would not be possible to play DRM music without paying the artist(s) and/or rights owner – which are covered by Spotify/Apple play/Amazon Music/YT and others by per play payments. Keep in mind that performance rights differ from region to region. For further details, look at RIAA (America) PRS (UK) and other regional websites for details. Also keep in mind that anyone acting a D.J., without the appropriate approval from the rights owner, is in violation of DRM regulations, and would be subject to fines.

Would be awesome to have a way to have Spotify audio playing in a space. Possibly using the embed code or API they offer.

This please, right now I can't even open a playlist in an embedded website - it remains blank.

Spotify Integration like Discord

Imtiaz Raqib

It would be great to have a Spotify integration like Discord where we can see what music/playlist a user is listening to on Spotify. Example screenshot below:

This is the best idea I've seen so far

We held a test event for our spaces on Gather, and background music was one of the most requested features in the feedback we got in our survey. We ended up having a 'DJ' avatar with music playing from a portable speaker sitting on a spotlight tile, but it wasn't always clear depending on what song was playing.

Bandcamp would be great here!
