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 only~~ one 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?

[-] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

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!

And also the app is more beautiful than the original Spotify app.

[-] Sentinian@lemmy.one 13 points 1 year ago

If the release is on Deezer, you can use deemix and you can get a arl with some easy googling

[-] Faceless@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

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 !

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Tell me more, my good Sir/Madame/Homeslice.

[-] jungekatz@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

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 !

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.

[-] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Not the case of these at all. The quality is incomparable.

[-] Lemmyboi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago

They can be found on deezer too right? , which you can download from it much easier

[-] nickiam2@aussie.zone 9 points 1 year ago

DoubleDouble let's you download from all the major streaming platforms just by giving it a link to what you want downloaded

[-] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 10 points 1 year ago

Cool, what kind of quality would it be?

[-] nickiam2@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago

It defaults to the highest quality available. Tidal gives you a flac file

[-] vildis@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

[-] maxprime@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 3 points 1 year ago

Gotta read upp on all these arr! softs, looks like there is a whole eco system around them too.

[-] generalEdo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

I have been using zotify and it is pretty great.

[-] Carter@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

Download from Deezer or Qobuz instead.

[-] surfbum@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 year ago

streamrip is pretty awesome too for this.

[-] bartolomeo@suppo.fi 5 points 1 year ago
[-] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Apeeksiht@lemdro.id 5 points 1 year ago

Actually you can't ,most downloaders here people suggested download those tracks from youtube.

[-] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

See my comment below for tools that do download directly from Spotify.

[-] guts@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I use the bot @spotify_down_bot on Telegram.

[-] hunt4peas@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

For listening, I use:

  1. SpotX for Windows
  2. 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.
[-] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

Is Spotify generally the highest digital format of music files available? Or do people source music through other paid or unpaid methods?

[-] chrizbie@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 year ago
[-] Sailing7@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for asking this, I also had that question ^^ I found two answeres, that fit my need perfectly. Love the community!

[-] Keeboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

You can try Deemix but the project Is dead but it still works it takes Spotify Playlist finds the songs on deezer and downloads it what sometimes gives you higher quality music then Spotify

[-] overfox@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Spytify works well. It works by recording the audio output of your pc while Spotify plays. It'll produce audio files with all the song info filled in.

Can also detect and mute ads if you don't have Spotify premium. If you do have it, you can also record with higher bitrate/quality.

[-] d4sm4dd1n@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I found this tool https://www.sidify.de/ a while ago. They have a paid solution, which you could pirate a crack for on a site of your choice. Maybe not the best solution, but it downloads the Tracks/Playlists/Albums by recording the audio and adding all the metadata.

[-] tiwenty@jlai.lu 2 points 1 year ago

You take a Deezer account and use Deemix :p

[-] nick@feddit.de -5 points 1 year ago

I'd just just use youtube-dl honestly

[-] burgersc12@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I'd rather use SoulSeek than youtube-dl
