Mopidy music server https://www.mopidy.com/ is popular app for background music playing like MPD. It have extensions for popular music services like Spotify, Soundcloud, Google play, etc: https://docs.mopidy.com/en/latest/ext/backends/
Also it have Deezer integration extension https://github.com/rusty-dev/mopidy-deezer - but it is written by single volunteer and not so featurefull.
Will be good to provide official extension to Mopidy from Deezer - maybe written from scratch or via collaboration with original developer of current extension - Konstantin rusty-dev Batura.
Not for now
Provide official Deezer plugin for Mopidy music server

Excellent! Instead of expand Deezer availability - Deezer cut it and remove all projects, that try to make Deezer more popular, integrated and available via more usage ways? Good bye Deezer, I will go to other services.
I like the audio quality Deezer offers, but unfortunately they are not very willing to allow 3rd party developers access. This is a big downside of Deezer, and for this it makes me think about stopping Deezer 🙂
Hmm, I'm a long time deezer customer - and now I#d love to make the usage of deezer possible for my toddlers. So I'd need access to the services of deezer via mopidy... Or we'll just switch to spotify...
As usual, with big companies, you get either everlasting promises or no response at all when it's about Linux integration. Why? Simply because there's no immediate ROI on this. It's something selfless, far far away of companies DNA. On the other side, Deezer and others would never been able to build such a service without FLOSS.
Look at the reality, Deezer has very quickly provided Amazon Echo integration (through a skill). If Deezer was ever aiming to provide a native Linux library (even a close source one for DRM concerns), it would already been done.
I'm really asking myself about using those services (Deezer, Spotify or others). In the end, illegal downloading doesn't serve artists, but with that you play wathever you want wherever you want.
Come on Deezer, take care of all your users/clients!

Well everything is said... Chromecast audio is being discontinued, so modipy would be a nice replacement... Maybe I will have to switch to Spotify
This is messed up. Deezer, please reconsider this one. If you don't provide cross-platform integration yourself, you should in fact be thankful for volunteers doing it for you.
Will cancel my subscription otherwise.

Oh, nice to know, that Deezer no have integration to popular 3rd extensions/app, like Mopidy and LMS (there we have some plugin, but it works bad).
Looks like I also should to look on Spotify and Google Music (which have this integration and this companies don't try to press 3rd party developers who made free plugins)

We’re not interesting for Deezer but we now know why Spotify has 50M customers and Deezer 7M, they care more for their customers...
+7Hi
They're 2 different companies with different audiences, markets, products, models and most of all, size. We also hear a lot about their users wanting a HiFi experience, which they can't provide.
We appreciate your honest feedback, and without this we wouldn't be able to improve 
This is a real shame, I’ve been looking for a streaming service for quite a while and Deezer had the Quality and Quantity I was looking for. However, it seems they’re actively fighting Linux support every step of the way. Both Mopidy & Tizonia worked legitimately with Deezer and now neither do. I Don't want to run Deezers Electron application on my system and even if I wanted to make an alternative it seems as is the official SDK has disappeared too.
It’s frustrating as this only seems to affect legitimate customers as there are many apps and tools out there that allow non-paying Deezer users to download and stream music. I’d love to be able to use an “official” CLI interface for Deezer and two WERE available but my only options now are sketchy android tools that jump through hoops to download the music, which I do not want to use...
I do understand that this issue may not be in the hands of the Deezer team but in the hands of the Record Labels and Music companies who are scared of losing their precious revenue and tracking data to third party applications but by making it difficult for a customer who WANTS to pay it's almost like I’m being pushed to sail the seven seas.
Please allow Mopidy, Tizona and other third party Linux tools access to your SDK.
(and if possible it’d be nice if the Native SDK was made re-released)
+7Hi there
Thank you for honest feedback. Your comments are very detailed so this helps a lot when looking into this project. I can confirm that it isn't on the plans for the next couple of months (obviously, things can change). This is so you know we're being transparent with you. We couldn't be more grateful for explaining your experience.
It is also something we'll be looking again in the future, once we completed the work on our priorities 
I have been an ardent supporter of Deezer as you offer a reasonable high quality audio experience. Unfortunately, I recently discovered this thread, and several others related to 1/ lack of support for Linux and open systems[1], 2/ active takedown of volunteer efforts [2]

I understand that it is hard to prioritize an item like native Linux support considering the multiple distributions you will have to support. However, your active stance in taking down mopidy support is, frankly, appalling. You have now lost me as a customer. So long and thanks for all the fish. (Also, you can get me back if you can work with mopidy community to resurrect a community support plugin, at no cost to you! Help us help you)
+7Hey
Our community team wasn't aware of this. I'll pass your comments to our teams straight away!
Thank you for keeping us in the loop and for your honesty. It's much appreciated. Hopefully we can work with the extension again in the near future 
Hi
any news on this issue? If no official plugin is in pipeline or planned, any chance that you will lift ban on community version?
Can I ask why Deezer went against those open source projects?
Would it be ok if a mopidy plugin is built on top of the official Deezer API
Hey everyone,
I just joined this thread because I face the same issue of lacking mopidy support due to the admonished integration extension. I have to fully agree with all the criticism towards Deezer.
Same here. Came here to tell that I am now canceling my subscription just due to the fact that I cannot simply integrate this service to my smarthome and multiroom audio system.
getting this topics out of the grave !!!
got my son a deezer account a few month ago, he is addict but that means it also addicted to a smartphone.
and guess what deezer can not be limited by family link on android.
Too bad i can not repurpose my mopidy setup on my raspberry so he can continue to listen to music without having to use his smartphone.
I Guess i will be another churning user for “missing feature”…
too bad, except for those french rap suggestion, algorithm and sound quality was great.
