Spotify has the ability to undo to rip music without having to pay. How the problem is exactly solved, is not clear. A Dutchman placed Tuesday a plugin online that allows users to be music, could rip.

Spotify has not yet indicated how the problem is resolved, but the developer of the plugin, Robin Aldenhoven, noted that the extension no longer works. That indicates that the problem is solved. Previously said Spotify is already working on a solution. The muziekstreamingdienst promises as soon as possible with a response.

Aldenhoven placed his extension, Downloadify, Tuesday online, as reported Tweakers earlier. After installing the extension, users could download music through the web client of Spotify on the numbers to double. Usually a number, with only streamed, but after the install of the extension was the chosen song as mp3 downloaded. This was not a paid subscription. Previously, the plugin is already removed from the Chrome Web Store.

The plugin made use of the fact that the web client of Spotify music, not encrypts, in contrast to the desktop clients and mobile apps. Or Spotify now have encryption applied, is unclear. The web client of Spotify makes use of an html5 api to play music, and at this moment, that is still no support for digital rights management.
