Hi all,

I’ve been scouring around for a tool to do this for some time but haven’t had any luck, hence here I am once again asking for your pirate support.

I’m aware of Cider, but it doesn’t do High-Quality Lossless and the people behind it seem a bit scummy to be honest; the whole Cider 2 thing. Forgive me if I’m wrong, and please correct me.

I’m quite keen on doing this since I’m part of an Apple Family plan, so I don’t pay a penny for the service but still get full access. I’ve got terabytes of storage just waiting to share music via Soulseek.

While I’m at it here, might as well ask if anyone’s got a similar thing for Spotify? It’s the same deal with the whole Family plan thing (It’s a complex situation) so downloading from that service is just as appealing, though AM is preferred because quality.

Sidenote, I don’t want any of these tools that just match the song and rip from YouTube; always gives crap quality.

    I use soggfy a lot for Spotify, with a premium account this will rip 320 mp3’s for you however I think that is the best you are able to get out of Spotify. You won’t be able to get any lossless rips from Spotify regardless of which method you use as far as I am aware.

        Likewise for me, 320 is enough as I’m not playing my music on a proper sound system or the like. In that case I can recommend soggfy for it’s ease of use as it is just a modified Spotify client, you play the music you want and it intercepts the incoming stream to rip the music. Nice and easy.

        I just make playlists and leave it over night to play etc
