I've a Balatan version from a couple of weeks back and it's running fine at the moment (used his spoti releases for over a year now- not sure if it's MrDude doing the modding?) so would only update again to Extreme back. I had read on here that Spotify changed the server side streaming to 128kbps to all none prem accounts, whereby they check the premium status of your account, if it fails as not being premium, the stream drops to 128kbps and the mod makes no difference to that (the extreme setting is just cosmetic). I can certainly vouch this has been the case, as at some point since before summer, spotify has been sounding like clipped/internet radio quality even with extreme enabled, whereas for a long time extreme gave you near cd quality. Has this mod therefore bypassed their serverside change and it's now back to true extreme sound quality again?
Thanks for your efforts.
* also don't understand what The_Killer is referring to. The checksums verify as it being the same apk. The filename only differs in that the open and closed parenthesis are displayed as their Html code on the second check - the name is otherwise identical?

As for the EXTREME AUDIO thing, you can go through the thread here:

And most important of all, why can't you download try and listen for yourself.
No disrespect , but if you can't hear the difference, then maybe it should not be your concern whether it's real or cosmetic.
It's strange, if not sad, that people can't trust his own ears, but has to rely on comments from others....
