As per title. New releases especially are quite hard to find on other clients or p2p resources; what’s the best way to get them from the source so that I can share them back?
DownOnSpot is
the onlyone correct answer.Edit: Zotify and Onthespot (which has a GUI) look good, as they too download straight from the source.
Never heard of it… Always used on the spot
Is it better?
Huh, wasn’t aware of that one! Looks like it works in a similar way, so should be good. Has a graphical user interface, too, so more approachable. Thanks!
Direct links aren’t allowed, you need to edit that. We can talk about piracy, but no linking.
I think you misunderstood the rule about not linking to pirated content.
Maybe. I suppose we could always report the comments linking directly, and let the admin decide, couldn’t we?
No, you have misunderstood what the rule is about.
You’re not allowed to link to pirated content, such as a download link to the Barbie movie.
But you’re free to link to places that discuss the Barbie movie, places that discuss where to watch the Barbie movie, and places that teaches you how you can rip the Barbie movie yourself.
The only things you cannot link to, are direct links to pirated content
Go ahead. The rule is about copyrighted content, not open source tools.
Look at that, doubling down.
But it’s just a link to GitHub right
Even if it’s a link to a tool, not a specific piece of content?
Spotube should be able to download tracks: https://spotube.krtirtho.dev/
And also the app is more beautiful than the original Spotify app.
If the release is on Deezer, you can use deemix and you can get a arl with some easy googling
I have a copy of the zSpotify saved which was DMCAed a while back from GitHub…
It still works flawlessly
I use telegram for most of my pirated stuff , there is a telegram bot that does that for u !
Tell me more, my good Sir/Madame/Homeslice.
Well telegram has most of the stuff you need , just search in its search bar Music download bot , and boom you get a bot downloading music for u. Movies , no problem , just type the name and download the movie !
Does it do books?
Z-library has a good Telegram bot. All you have to do is register on their site and then create your own bot which you then connect to Zlibrary. They have a handy guide here https://en.zlibrary-za.se/z-access#telegram_bot_tab
I’ve been told that in Telegram you can find bots to download music from Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer. Probably Spotify too, but those are the ones I know.
Depending on the bot you might not know where the audio is coming from. Most tools I know of download from youtube and add metadata (title, album, artist, …) but sometimes also include noise from a music video.
Though Bots in general are awesome.
Not the case of these at all. The quality is incomparable.
They can be found on deezer too right? , which you can download from it much easier
DoubleDouble let’s you download from all the major streaming platforms just by giving it a link to what you want downloaded
Cool, what kind of quality would it be?
It defaults to the highest quality available. Tidal gives you a flac file
i find most music i search for in higher quality (doesn’t have everything) on https://slavart.gamesdrive.net/
it’d be a pain to download full playlists tho
Lidarr can do this, but it downloads the full album of each song which may or may not be a feature in your use case.
Gotta read upp on all these arr! softs, looks like there is a whole eco system around them too.
I have been using zotify and it is pretty great.
Download from Deezer or Qobuz instead.
streamrip is pretty awesome too for this.
Actually you can’t ,most downloaders here people suggested download those tracks from youtube.
See my comment below for tools that do download directly from Spotify.
Freyr is amazing.
According to the readme it downloads the songs from youtube or other sources and then adds metadata after reencoding. This means tracks might include unwanted audio from a yt music video.
But I also used tools like this in the past, they work great.
For listening, I use:
- SpotX for Windows
- xManager for Android. For downloading songs in my Spotify playlist, I use Spowlo for Android. It downloads songs at the specified quality (I choose 320 kbps and but you can download even in FLAC; I chose FLAC for some songs). So far, it has been able to download all my 1910 songs from my personal playlist.
I use the bot @spotify_down_bot on Telegram.
Is Spotify generally the highest digital format of music files available? Or do people source music through other paid or unpaid methods?
