You are correct

I believe that changed recently and Spotify started blocking the key requests from free accounts.

  • Then how do people with free accounts listen to music lol

    (It is plausible they added some new DRM but it's not going to be anything too crazy)

    • Their official clients have moved over to playplay DRM protection for non-lossless files too. The old key endpoints no longer work for free accounts, they must have added a server-side check.
