Spotify is working on my Beosound 5. 

With beo 6 I can control (2-way) the CD function. My question: Is there an possibility to have a button on the Beo 6 to have 2-way connection with Spotify??

If you are lucky, the next software update will give you this 🙂

Beo6 supports controlling the BS5 Spotify functionality on a very basic level (skipping tracks). 2-way functionality with Spotify is not possible (and won't be in the future).

How do you know that this won't be in the future?

Spotify doesn't allow such functionality.

Nonsense, that has nothing to do with Spotify at all, it's all up to Bang & Olufsen to choose to develop it. But it will be a two part thing, both a firmware update for the Beo6, and software update for the Beosound 5; and an update of the Beo Config Tool.

This is to all of you who works at BANG & OLUFSEN:

When do we get two way communication with Spotify & Radio in The Beo6??

PLEASE hurry up!
