Spotify 10.4.11 Mac G4 Running

Today, I was browsing the PPC archive on my PowerMac G4 running Tiger.

I found Spotify and it looked cool to be able to stream music on a 15 year old computer.

So after downloading it, dragging Spotify to my Applications folder and opening it, I was - to my surprise - greeted with a login screen.

I logged in using my FB email and password and I got in Not even a minute later I was streaming music on a 15 year old computer Who on earth would even have thought that was possible.

There are a few bugs though, but they are likely due to the client being so old.

One is the failure of loading the Persons screen (Facebook api broken due to the version being old).

The other bug or shortcoming is that all your Albums are not accessible with this client.

This is likely because the Albums feature was introduced way after this client came out.

In the past, you used to save albums as Playlists and they were added to your library - and my playlists do indeed work in this old client.

All G3 and most G4 systems will run Spotify, but pretty slow.

And if you have a fast G4, like a 1.67GHz, or a G5, youre going to be running Leopard.

So any computer that you have running 10.4 is probably not going to run it well.

Whats cooler is the fact that someone has edited the Spotify.app binary to also run on G3 machines, its somewhere on MacRumors.

Ive had Spotify running fine on the original Bondi 233MHz iMac G3 with Tiger (XPostFacto ofcourse) and that edited Spotify.app.

Theres an edited Spotify.app somewhere here on MacRumors that does, though.

Also this old version feels so much less bloated than the modern ones.

The modified version was floating around someplace a while back, now its on all of my Macs that can run it.

Downloaded it, opened it from the Applications folder and was met with the log-in screen requesting Username and Password.

Not having a FB account, I entered my wifes e-mail address as Username followed by her FB password.

No luck. Tried again, and met with unknown details.
