Make it possible to listen to Spotify Free with Alexa on Denon receivers! PLEASE!

Hi there, I'm not sure if Spotify themselves support that, but for this Alexa skill specifically premium is required

Hello! Yes, I am aware that a Premium subscription is required. For example, previously, Denon receivers also did not support streaming without a Spotify subscription, but now this is implemented. Based on this, I thought that here the craftsmen will be able to implement this. Yes, while Spotify does not have hifi sound quality, I don’t see any reason to pay for, relatively speaking, mp3 quality.

Unfortunately, I have no control over what Spotify provides, as this service just interacts with the public API they provide. I don't have either of those sound systems so no way to test it, but most likely if it can't be done through a phone/computer then this skill won't be able to do so either I'm afraid

Here's the trouble. It is a pity that all this was not initially implemented by Amazon. And Spotify doesn't care about its users. Thanks for answers.
