You can use this but it doesn't really download directly from Spotify. Instead, it takes the song name from Spotify, searches it on YouTube, downloads it from YouTube and then adds metadata from Spotify on the downloaded file.

Shameless self-plug, but I made a Python program that basically does the exact same thing, except it has a web ui. It's called MetaTube and it also supports other metadata providers, such as Musicbrainz and Deezer.

Without using the tool, my guess would be not that good (overall if it uses a "video" as the source instead the audio file that YT Music has), but I hope I'm wrong.

There's zspotify which is the only one I know of, but on the rare occasion I want to download an album I just use doubledouble.top

[-] KISSmyOS@feddit.de 7 points 9 months ago

Holy shit, thanks!

[-] Hyperreality@kbin.social 4 points 9 months ago

Wow. This is great.

[-] agressivelyPassive@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

One might also could patch something like librespot, so that it automatically saves all songs played as mp4. I heard. From a friend.

zotify is the only one I know about that downloads directly from spotify. FOSS of course.

I think I started using this after spotify-ripper stopped working because of some library deprecation, but found it wasn't as good. No album art or ID3 tags, which spotify-ripper did do.

This shows up as a virtual device and uses the Spotify client to play into a virtual device. Works great and downloaded many things.

Is there some service that looks at your Spotify or YouTube Music playlist and downloads FLAC versions of those songs from somewhere else.

[-] SuperSaiyanSwag@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 months ago

I’m the idiot who uses YouTube Music

What quality are you getting from downloading from Spotify?

Personally, I use Deezer + Deemix to download FLAC for offline play and it's great!

[-] agressivelyPassive@feddit.de 5 points 9 months ago

320kbit/s Opus. It's pretty okay, but there's some compression (in the audio sense) going on, so that some songs sound very noticeably worse. Tool for example lost all its, well, toolness.

[-] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Thought Deemix was dead? I went looking for an updated version last month and couldn't find anything.

[-] copycat@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

It is dead, but the app still works.

Do you need a paying account for it to work? I didn't realise all these piracy apps existed for music on Linux. They completely passed me by!

[-] DjMeas@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I think you do need an account (which could be trials) because you have to use an ARL or your credentials to login to Deemix with.

I personally pay for a Deezer family plan and just use offline play mainly for my car.

From what I remember MP3DownloadNet uses the Deezer API to download MP3s and FLAC. I used to collect music with this site before it all the ads but it seems like it's still working.

[-] Anamana@feddit.de 3 points 9 months ago

No, you don't need to pay for it. There are plenty of telegram bots and free premium ARLs on the net

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.

spotDL (not spotify-dl) is a good CLI option.

[-] Vertelleus@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I use SpotTube to listen cross platform. But I think it pulls songs from YouTube but uses your Spotify account. You can also download the the songs in your album.

[-] rando@lemmy.ml 8 points 9 months ago

Spotiflyer https://spotiflyer.app/ No lossless downloads though (320kbps)

I like Spotiflyer and have been using it for probably a year but I think it uses rips from YouTube so a lot of people aren't fans of the quality.

[-] RayJW@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 months ago

DownOnSpot is my personal favourite so far ^^

[-] Jonnsy@slrpnk.net 8 points 9 months ago

Deezload2bot on telegram You can send spotify links and it will send you the mp3 files

I don't have answers that haven't already been said, but I'll give a recommendation to Seeker as a means of downloading music outside of streaming apps. It's just a fantastic app for torrenting entire albums from in mp3, ogg, and FLAC format. I've downloaded dozens of gigs of music off it so far and will likely have to grab a terabyte micro SD card for my phone.

[-] ItsAFake@lemmus.org 8 points 9 months ago

It brings a tear of joy to my eye when I see someone promoting soulseek.

Soulseek is an old friend who I can credit most my music taste to.

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.

[-] w2tpmf@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Spotiflyer is available for Linux/Windows/Mac as well.

[-] tootnbuns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 9 months ago

I absolutely love how Much easier it is to pirate music over Spotify. Artists don't get shit either way.

I usually use SlavArt to download MP3s and FLACs from streaming services: https://doubledouble.top

[-] Macallan@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Is there something similar for YouTube Music?

[-] Aradia@lemmy.ml 8 points 9 months ago
