I'm looking at mopidy (http://www.mopidy.com) which is a MPD server that uses Spotify as it's music source.  It doesn't come with libspotify bundled, and I've put together packages for it, pyspotify, libspotify and pykka.  AFAIC, whatever application key is needed is embedded in mopidy.  FWIW, Mopidy, pyspotify and pykka are all licensed under ASL 2.0.
