That's not the reason why Spotify is not on extra.
Spotify is not on extra because it's not FOSS.

Spotify is not on extra because it's not FOSS.
That is not true, there are plenty of non-FOSS packages in extra/multilib (e.g steam, discord, nvidia). The only criteria is if there is an interested packager to maintain it.
