I get thread 'main' panicked at 'Authentication failed', /home/elronnd/librespot/target/debug/build/librespot-dfbb8235c1536a0f/out/lib.rs:365 when I try to run it. I'm running with

RUST_BACKTRACE=1 ./librespot -n "name" -u username -p password

Backtrate.

I'm not really sure what could be causing the Authentication failed other than well an incorrect password. Are you using a free account ? librespot only works with premium.

Yes I'm using a free account. It's probably the cause.

There is absolutely no way to realize that librespot needs a Spotify premium account in order to work.
Could you please add it to the readme so that others don't make the same mistake I did?
Oh, and thanks for making librespot and for sharing it with us. :-)
Cheers
