I eventually find this topic and follow more instructions, but Spotify still no worky. I Google the problem and find myself on Spotify community forum, where I go through more contortions to get logged in. On the other hand it might be that Google is simply following an evolving specification and Spotify's programmers are slacking.

Chrome is a Google product, and we now know Google is pretty much just like any other person / corporate entity - they are going to look out for their own best interests, and it that means making some obscure little tweak to Chrome that makes everybody else's streaming engine choke, well I wouldn't be surprised. The original problem of not being able to play tunes using Spotify on the Chrome web browser I can kind of understand. On the other hand it has given me something to focus on. The frustration from following all the relatively simple instructions to correct a fundamental problem is very annoying.

Find the tune, login, click play and I get a big fat error - "The version of Chrome is not supported", so I update my OS, which hopefully updates Chrome because I don't want any more instructions. The click takes me to the Spotify website, but not to the tune they are promoting. Well, sure I'll give it a shot, so I click. I'm checking the fringes of my digital domain (riding the fences, so to speak), deleting spam from my email and I come across a note from Spotify promoting a tune. Or was it? Normally a website that gives me as much trouble as Spotify does would be regarded as a royal pain-in-the-neck. I started writing this the Spotify community forum, but I started expounding, so I thought I probably out to record it here first.

Spotify no longer supports this version of chrome.Information is retrieved from the Releases Blog. As of October 27, 2022, the latest stable version for Windows, macOS, and Linux is Chrome 1.71. This is a complete list of versions that Google Chrome has gone through.
