I wish Lemmy had a better search function because this is a perennial topic. This might help:
I used to have a command line app that could take a list of Spotify URLs, your credentials and allowed you to bulk download everything directly from Spotify. In my opinion the tools that use Youtube are worthless because they rarely work for the things I want. But I forgot the name of that tool and have been desperately looking for it every since, without success. This thread prompted me to look again and I found https://github.com/casualsnek/onthespot which does basically the same, but with a GUI. So far it works fine.
Not exactly Linux , but for android ViMusic works great. It gets from YouTube music. https://github.com/vfsfitvnm/ViMusic Its available in fdroid.
2nded so hard. By far the best music app I've ever used. So small, and efficient too
I'd recommend InnerTune for people that like Material You themed apps.
I really thought id see answers solely about soulseekqt lol
I absolutely love how Much easier it is to pirate music over Spotify. Artists don't get shit either way.
yes dont even try to support them, they dindt earn it anyways
They don't earn anything through Spotify ?
shure they do, but small artist dont earn a lot because spotify is a shit company… and some people think thats an argument for not paying for music at all because „tHeY wOuLdnT eArN muTcH tHroUgH SpoTIfY“ but thats bs imo, the smaller they are the more its wort supporting them, whatever the plattform is. if you dont have money for that its fine, but if, thats not a good argument for piracy
ah well... yes, agreed
Is there something similar for YouTube Music?
yt-dlp -f bestaudio/best --extract-audio --embed-metadata --embed-thumbnail --recode opus --audio-quality 0 $YoutubeLink
Yes, this post right here. I'm going to save it and use the sh*t out of it.
Thanks!
Is there some service that looks at your Spotify or YouTube Music playlist and downloads FLAC versions of those songs from somewhere else.
I’m the idiot who uses YouTube Music
My condolences, not my area of expertise
couple extra steps, but I think I can use another application to copy over my playlists to Spotify and then I can use your link. Thank you!
True, that should work :)
I just remembered I did the same for a yt playlist once. Deezer has a free import function to transfer playlists. Once you did that you can paste the link. It should be unlimited regarding the number of tracks.
on fdroid for Android, there's an app called spotiflyer. you just have to move the songs from your device to wherever you want to store your music but you can rip whole Playlist of yours with it and it works quite well most of the time.
Spotiflyer is available for Linux/Windows/Mac as well.
big news. thanks
Spotiflyer https://spotiflyer.app/ No lossless downloads though (320kbps)
This seems amazing. Let me make sure I understand. I can have a free version of Spotify, add music to some playlist, and then have spotiflyer download the playlist in good quality (320kbps)?
Does it download differential? That is, if I add a new song to a playlist, can it download only that new song?
Edit: When going to the details of the downloaded files, all of them are bitrate "128 kb/s", even though I selected 320 in spotiflyer..
I think this is where login option comes in, i'll report back if it works differently between logged in vs logged out.
As for differential - yes it can download incremental given you don't move the files / folders ( doesn't have database, but check for file existence in the path )
If one needs a spotify login (and I suppose premium account?) to download in 320kbps, then there really is no reason to not use spotify directly, I suppose.
I am looking for the best way to ditch spotify completely. I need songs in 320kbps though. Maybe torrenting is the way, though it is hard to find songs.
Have u tried soulseek in that case? U can find all music lossless.(podcasts etc I still can't find there). nicotine+ is pretty good client for soulseek.
Spytify but it is for windows only. You can use a vm for it. You got to have a premium acc to acces higher quality though.
Personally i rip straight from tidal. Been thinking of making a few tb available on I2P soon.
How are you ripping from Tidal?
i send you a DM. Not sure if I am allowed to say it in the sub
