Originally assigned to: @akashrchandran on GitHub.

I thought this wouldn't work with free accounts because of spotify but i saw you pushed some changes only a few months ago, so do you mind if i ask the state of this project? Does it work with free accounts or just paid?

Spotify just undid the update or something because it works now

Spotify changed the parameters for the get_access_token endpoint, so I updated it. Other than that, it should work now.

Looks like spotify broke it again. You try to get a get_access_token open.spotify.com/get_access_token?reason=transport&productType=Web_player you get this message on spotify

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Unauthorized request","extra":{"_notes":"Usage of this endpoint is not permitted under the Spotify Developer Terms and Developer Policy, and applicable law"}}}
