Spotify. How can I install the app?

[ianp5a]

following the instructions for "Debian package" on the link @oshunluvr posted is by far the best way to obtain Spotify ,,,,,,,



in my opinion

But those instructions are incomplete. You'd need a bit of prior knowledge or further web searching to try to work out how to do it if you've never used the terminal before. So do you mean it's the best way for you?

Those are instructions for IT people. There is probably an easy way.

Here you go: https://docs.snapcraft.io/core/usage

If you are on 16.04 or later, the Snap back-end is already installed on your system by default. If for some reason your system does not have it installed, see here: https://docs.snapcraft.io/core/install-ubuntu

Kubuntu is Ubuntu. Snaps install just fine.

.

How?

Spotify have now updated their installation instructions to include snaps and Ubuntu Software manager installs. But still no easy solution for Kubuntu. Like a downloadable .deb. But you can install the Gnome Software application and install Spotify from there.

It has to do with the strict consumer protection laws. Teaser rates that increase after X months are not allowed. The laws were intended to civilize cell phone and cable providers originally..

Sorry, I meant that as a joke - [ smiley added ]

Why single out Quebec? Did someone have a bad holiday up there?

Thanks. How can I install the snap on Kubuntu? Is there a Snap store app?

Here you go: https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/snappy

Just install snapd from the repository. If it gives you an error like mine did (because it was masked and dead) just purge it and reinstall it.
Then use the snap magic words to install spotify.

Just a heads-up, Spotify is now in the Snap store for easy install: https://snapcraft.io/spotify/
