Well, I just wanted to add some thoughts about what was said earlier:
The use of a special "library plugin" format was already discussed. So why not add the important options for library plugins and let users develop and share their own plugins, like for Spotify, youtube (i think Soundcloud was also stated, even if I wouldn't use it).
These could shift the legal issues from the Mixxx core application to the actual plugin developer.
If Spotify still demands the disabling of a record, couldn't you just add a plugin option to "temporarily disable recording due to legal issues" (and probably disable the plugin when the user wants to record)?
The argument that Spotify is only for private use seems queer since this other DJ app apparently uses it. Does it violate the ToS then or do they have some kind of exclusive agreement?
The argument that people could bypass these limits is only somewhat relevant: Because users could also change the behaviour of Clementine and there are already Spotify downloaders as far as I know.
