same issue, is it still working?

[KarlZeilhofer]

same here.
has Spotify disabled the "support" of despotify?

[kenorb]

Try: spotify-to-mp3 instead (see also at AskUbuntu).

[KarlZeilhofer]

this relates to grooveshark, which is shut down.
so despotify is generally not working any more?

If you use Ubuntu/Linux, you can try "Audio Recorder", which record streams from Spotify (among others) with artists/titles infos.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:osmoma/audio-recorder
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install audio-recorder
