Bit of a strange target for outrage. Almost all of the streaming services listed are paid for by subscription, purchase or taxes. So the "pay what you wish" model for some improved ergonomics is not unreasonable. The minimum price is $3.99/year, of which the team gets $3.50. Or if that's too much, get stuck in. How many minutes of your time would you value at $3.50? > Alternatively, you can participate in the Nuvola Player project to get a free developer license. https://github.com/tiliado/nuvolaplayer

On Linux, check out Nuvola player (https://github.com/tiliado/nuvolaplayer) - it basically wraps the web UI and provides integration with global media keys / shortcuts and the underlying sound menu (in Ubuntu). As a plus, it integrates with other cloud music streaming services too. There's also Tomahawk (https://www.tomahawk-player.org/) but I found it a bit too buggy, and unable to canonicalize songs across the streaming music providers.
