spotify: Remove content that advertise copyright license violation

Browse source 
Unfortunately it's not moral (if even legal) to advertise a license
violation. Spotify does not allow the client application to be distributed
elsewhere than by spotify.com, this is a well-known issue over the web.

Here are the exact license terms:
http://www.spotify.com/se/legal/end-user-agreement/

This commit also fixes the RPM Fusion documentation using lpf framework
to workaround with particular issue.
(lpf is a fedora package that show the license, download and re-package
a given software).

Please also spell the project as appropriate:
- RPM Fusion (by default)
 or
- rpmfusion (when space within name is not possible)

RPM Fusion provides software that the Fedora Project does not ship. That software is provided as a lpf RPM for all current Fedora versions.
It means that you need to explicitely allow the spotify license before the lpf framework will download and re-package automatically the software.
