On the Beosound 5 you need Spotify Premium to use it. On 10-12-2013 Spotify has a new service and you can use it for free (with some restrictions) on all mobile devices.
Can I cancel the premium account and use the new introduced free account?
On the Ipad and PC its working fine, but on the Beosound 5 Spotify is still telling that service is only available on Premium account.
I assume when it says you need a premium account, it means you need a premium account. I believe other home music devices (sonos) also have this requirement.

Or it might just be a leftover from earlier instructions, written before the Spotify terms changed. I first read about that just now, and installed the Spotify app on my old Nokia N8 (never tried before, as I only have the free account) and it worked straight away. Which is nice because now I can listen to Spotify on any radio with the builtin FM transmitter of the phone 😁
Remembering this is the old Symbian app that hasn't been updated for at least a year (so all the "enabling", for the lack of a better word, has happened at the Spotify service end, not the player), it's certainly worth a try on the BS5 as well!
EDIT: Argh, the OP already said that he tried. Sorry, I suppose it doesn't work then 🙁
I wouldn't want to listen to anything less than Spotify PREMIUM on a B&O setup.

I see that there is a new update for Qplay added to the list on the Bang and olufsen site. Has anyone managed to get this working. My system still says 0% downloading.
