It was at that point that I squashed it, blocking all Spotify services on our SonicWall. After I remoted in Spotify KEPT POPPING UP OVER TOP OF OUR DB SOFTWARE AND COULD NOT BE CLOSED OUT. I was 'taking my time' about it until someone asked me to remote into their workstation to resolve an issue with our database software. What resources have you noticed it consuming? I use it on multiple computers, and it generally consumes around 275MB of RAM and no disk or CPU unless I'm downloading a local copy of a song.īackstory: Company CEO told me to block most streaming music services several years ago. Using the browser instead sounds like a good plan. If I had a dollar for every time someone told me how slow their computer was and I found spotify running, killed it, and performance improved a lot, then I could get a night in a nice hotel. My observation has been that spotify is an excellent way to kill your computer's performance. I have numerous users (all in a certain demographic, interestingly) who can't live without their spotify. Wow, thanks for that idea! I'm going to run this idea by my team.

It works exactly the same as the client version without needing to install anything, just streams like youtube etc Are your security concerns around the Spofity desktop client? We block users from installing any programs instead i just tell them to use the web player instead.

How bad is your spotify security
