    Make the Spotify Apt Repository File
    With this Command we create the Spotify Repo:

    echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/spotify.gpg] http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list
    
    Authenticate with the User Admin Pass.
    If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo.

    Then import the Spotify Repo GPG Key
    With:

    curl -fsSL https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_7A3A762FAFD4A51F.gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/spotify.gpg
