Goal of this PR:

Build a working prototype using the Spotify Web API and test feasibility of features listed in #4. Should close #5 and #6.

Not being able to play/stream audio right inside radio pool changes the initial ideation of the app in an interesting way. We can assume the other platforms i.e YouTube and SoundCloud may have similar restrictions. Maybe radio pool can be an app that helps organise your favourite music from different platforms all in one place. This reduces the value that it provides to the user but it's a decent starting point.
