I've been running this for the last 5 hours, since I saw the posting. Thankfully, in arch it's just part of the aur.

Frankly, it's awesome. It's literally every single thing I dislike about Spotify fixed. There are no podcasts, I can search, there's no social senselessness anymore.. I'm thrilled.

The only problem I have is that eventually it just gobbles CPU. Having it open and doing nothing seems to take ~4% of my CPU, and while playing a constant 7.2%. Frankly, I assume this is decoding, but I haven't traced yet. Eventually it spun out of control and pegged one CPU at ~90%, which a quick restart fixed. All of this is to say it's an incredible project - I'm not going back to the old client.
