Putting artificial restrictions in Mixxx would make Mixxx no longer free software as it violates freedom 0, the freedom to use the program for any purpose. There is absolutely no wiggle room here as far as I am concerned. I will not be associated with software that is not free and will stop contributing to Mixxx if artificial limitations are put in the code.

That is absurd. Spotify (and other companies) demand restricting user freedom. There is no freedom in caving to their demands.

> If the user is already paying for a stream, he should have the freedom to use it wherever and however he likes.

I agree. Unfortunately that violates the terms of service.
