Doesn't work. Neverending "Connecting to Spotify...".

This is the best mini player I have ever used. It completely beats Spotify's official mini player, which stops playing when the tab is closed. Thank you for the clever idea!

works great without needing to have the tab opened, great to play music on a discrete way and leaves no track of it
