Do not close the application upon failed login. #297

Closed brunofin closed 6 years ago

It is very frustrating after entering the wrong credentials have the application closed and forcefully have to open it again. I believe this brings a bad user experience. I have myself given up of the application for an entire week before trying to open it again just because of this, while the solution is straightforward: Simply let the user know the credentials are wrong and take no further actions.

This is because of a massive memory leak in the libspotify library (that is no longer supported by spotify). We are no longer developing v1 of soundbounce - come see v2 in development here : https://v2.soundbounce.org/ - (https://github.com/pdaddyo/soundbounce-v2) it uses proper login and Spotify Connect to control your player.
