[BUG] BadCredentials

[hazycora]

Describe the bug
Login fails on some accounts on some devices. My current guess is they're doing some kind of A/B test to phase out something this relies on? Maybe the protocol version needs to be updated?
Occurs not just here but also on the separate librespot-js project and librespot-java. The bug is not with some library-specific logic but with a change to Spotify- a fix here will likely also be able to be applied everywhere else.

To Reproduce

from librespot.core import Session

session = Session.Builder() \
    .user_pass("username", "password") \
    .create()

Expected behavior
The login should be successful.

If it can't be reproduced, I have a server that has this problem, and I'm up for helping in any way I can!

I don't know the details, I suspect that your IP address has been blacklisted due to the number of login attempts?

[hazycora]

given that this occurred the only time I had ever tried on this server, no I don't believe that

I also encounter this issue since today.. Any fix?

Same issue here with the bad credentials.

This just started happening to me today too, might be an issue with spotify's client? I tried on a MacBook with latest MacOS and my linux desktop, both having same issue. I also tried with the latest install of librespot, that was working yesterday.

Since this is happening to so many people they might have an issue with their api right now?

I also have this issue on a windows machine.

It's also being discussed in the librespot project directly here : librespot-org/librespot#1308

Feels like spotify changed something on their end maybe?

@shayanmaher happening to me on a residential IP. Definitely not data center blacklisting, but rather seems like a buggy rolled-out deploy in their end or rather some of their pesky A/B API testing
