    Spotify x FFXIV orchestration plz!!

    Would love to see access to my Spotify playlist on my orchestration. Since I had switched over to console I had been enjoying Spotify while playing ffxiv and I know a lot of other players who do the same on console.
    Just thought it would be a fun partnership for us players to experience in our houses to share with our friends and fc’s. In game music is cool but after 10 years id rather hear it less often and more so in their natural environments.. especially not in my own house/apartment where we all like to chill out and craft/socialize and unwind.
    Now days I find myself muting music unless it’s in a new environment. I’m sure they’ll get old soon too since it’s all in repeat every house I go to in the game. It would just offer a nice breath of fresh air and separate the monotony of hearing everything on repeat.
    Don’t get me wrong, I love the music in game but i just don’t want to hear it all the time.

    The way the Orchestrion is set up unfortunately makes such an idea impossible, as it would require specific music to be coded to run within it (it's not a regular music player) - tracks it uses are specifically coded for it and utilize the secondary sound channel the game client normally uses for battle music and certain sound effects (this is why it's locked to housing, battle music naturally is not needed to be cued up inside a house).

    Also there is the small problem of copyright licensing SE would have to do with Spotify just to use their service, on top of licensing with the various music labels that provide music to it, a very expensive and time-consuming effort with little benefit. This would be just not possible I'm sorry to say.
