Spotify App for PowerPC Macs?

[Lambomacguy]

I havent been able to locate any apps, does any such working Spotify App exist for PPC? I cant get it to work on TenFourFox (1.33ghz G4)
Any help would be greatly appreciated, all the ibooks are really good or are music streaming playback.

Spotify stopped working on PowerPC last year - it was workable long, long after it had ceased being supported.

Highly unlikely to work though. This is the last PowerPC version and it's years past.

There is a chance you can "use" Spotify and your PowerPC machines as a front end:

I tried it a few days ago as the download is still available on the Spotify Website but it does not connect. I fear forever this time...

Maybe Spotify for VK? Just a wild guess.

As for the other side of the fence...

Are there any Pandora apps?

Pandora isn't available in the UK - the only streaming service available to PPC seems to be Youtube Music - Deezer was working for a while too but now that's gone.

I missed this way back when you posted it. Thanks. It's in Terminal, but I am now streaming Pandora to my PowerPC Macs again.

Is there currently any streaming client for PPC/YouTube Music? TFF is extremely slow on the website and you have to pay for audio only.

I know this is an old thread. Apologies if this is very obvious but I just wanted to share my solution for music streaming. I use TenFourFox with DuckDuckGo. I do a video search with the SD setting on. Then I play the mix in DuckDuckGo, thus avoiding the processor heavy pop-up windows in YouTube. Even on SD the video takes a while to catch up, but the audio plays smoothly, and often I play mixes with a static image.This works on my G4 Lampy running 10.4.11. I also have Kubuntu 12.04 and YouTube worked on that last time I checked, albeit with very pixelated video, however I don't reccomend using that, unless you are up for lots of problem solving to get linux set up.

If YouTube is where it's at, there's some solutions out there, e.g.

2021 Youtube (Again....)

This is an update of the method I outlined here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/streaming-720p-youtube-on-powerbook.2207317/ Moving over to TenFourFox as IceweaselPPC no longer works with this, everything is basically the same but now the viewtubehandler script points to ffplay within...
