More power to him for finding a workflow that works.

The only thing that would stop me from using a similar set up for writing is that there isn't a DOS version of Spotify :(.

Run DOS and the word processor in a VM, with Spotify running outside it, perhaps.

If that's doable, I bet DOS and WordStar (or WordPerfect, etc.) would be awfully quick in a VM.
