i can't play spotify!

why spotify won't play any songs?does r3dfox has drm issue like other browsers?

DRM (Digital Rights Management) is a copyright protection mechanism. When you try to play content protected by DRM, the website checks if the necessary DRM software is available. Most browsers use Widevine, a DRM technology developed by Google.

r3dfox doesn't have a Widevine license. Therefore, DRM-protected videos or music cannot be played in r3dfox.

You can try Luminafox fork, which supports DRM: #9 (comment) / #133 (comment)
(but it's no longer developed and the latest version is 128.0.2-rc3)

jonm58: r3dfox doesn't have a Widevine license.

Yeah, as far I know it costs several thousands of $, too much for alone fork like r3dfox, but not a problem for a big company like Mozilla.
