If the only thing you need to save is artist and track name as text in a list, then it's easy:
The only thing you need is OpenOffice.org but apparently also MS Word works.
In Spotify:
- Select one track by clicking on it.
- Press Ctrl-a
- Press Ctrl-c or press the right mouse button and in the popup menu select Copy HTTP Link.
In OpenOffice.org:
- Create new empty Text Document.
- Press Ctrl-v or press the right mouse button and in the popup menu select Paste.
Thats it.
I find this change really disappointing since the free version of Spotify has been an innovative and useful service, a radio station with commercials but where you as a listener can select the music. Spotify has been excellent way to explore old music and to find new still fairly unknown artists.
