Seems really great but it doesn't appear to work anymore?? Either I'm not using it properly or the extension requires an update to match spotify's current software.

I didn't feel comfortable when it asked me "Access your tabs and browsing activity" during the installation. Also I didn't understand what's special about this extension. There's another extension called Spotify Search Plus which not only searches from omni-box, but also allows you to embed the song as well as search it on Youtube and google with a click. It also allows searching with right-click context menu on any page. Also that shows artist discography and in any way is better than this one. It's a no-brainer choice! Thanks for your time but I rather stick to Spotify Search Plus.
