Prevent live tracks in Spotify on macOS.

Setup

  1. Paste (or type, or whatever) the .scpt file below into Script Editor.
  2. Export the script as an application (no need for code signing). Doesn't really matter where, but put it somewhere you can find it.
  3. Optional, but makes usage much less annoying: edit No Live Spotify Tracks.app/Contents/Info.plist and add the value NSUIElement = "1" (i.e. <key>NSUIElement</key><string>1</string>) to keep the app from showing up in the Dock.
  4. Add the application as a login item (System Preferences > Users & Groups > User > Login Items).
  5. To start the application without logging out and back in first, just do 'No Live Spotify Tracks.app/Contents/MacOS/applet' & and enjoy.
