How to get a good Spotify proxy?
I have a Spotify account (a free one) that I would like to continue to use when I return to Thailand in a few days. AFAIK it will work for 14 days and then stop (unless I pay a monthly fee). I try to make spotify run at work. There is a proxy but I don't seem to get through it. There is no need for usr/pwd in the proxy as far as I know. I get error 9 using https and error 101 using socks4 and 5. What is the problem and what can I do about it?
Answer:
If you live in the U.S., Canada or other countries, you’re on the blacklist for Spotify; as it’s not currently available in all locations - even if you opt for a premium account. But don’t let that stop you. First, you need to find an invite. Second, you need to sign up through a web proxy from a supported country.
Method 1:
go to http://www.daveproxy.co.uk/
2) enter the following URL: https://www.spotify.com/en/get-started/
3) Create your account, for UK postcode - check http://www.postcodesearch.org.uk/
That part is easy however you can only use the free version.
Method 2:
Follow the instructions above, but instead of using daveproxy to pretend you are in the UK, use http://proxify.eu/ (Spotify appear to have blocked daveproxy). Click this link and then enter https://www.spotify.com/en/get-started/ that should take you to the Spotify create account page (i just tested it from here in Thailand and got the correct page). You will still need a UK postcode, http://www.postcodesearch.org.uk/ pic one at random.
