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
Holy shit, thanks!
One might also could patch something like librespot, so that it automatically saves all songs played as mp4. I heard. From a friend.
Wow. This is great.
How is the quality of the music downloaded from doubledouble?
I’m far from an audiophile, but stuff fetched from Spotify downloads at 320 kbps. I usually fetch from Deezer, which has 44.1 kHz FLAC.
zotify is the only one I know about that downloads directly from spotify. FOSS of course.
spotify-dl worked great for me
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.

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.
This shows up as a virtual device and uses the Spotify client to play into a virtual device. Works great and downloaded many things.
Ooh, neat! Thank you for sharing and linking this!
What quality are you getting from downloading from Spotify?
Personally, I use Deezer + Deemix to download FLAC for offline play and it’s great!
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.
Thought Deemix was dead? I went looking for an updated version last month and couldn’t find anything.
It is dead, but the app still works.
No forks? Weird it’d be abandoned if it 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!
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.
No, you don’t need to pay for it. There are plenty of telegram bots and free premium ARLs on the net
How is quality compared to tidal? Been ripping lossles flacs from it for a while now.
Don’t
free-mp3-download 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.
How are you ripping from Tidal?
i send you a DM. Not sure if I am allowed to say it in the sub
spotDL (not spotify-dl) is a good CLI option.
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.
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.
I really thought id see answers solely about soulseekqt lol
I wish Lemmy had a better search function because this is a perennial topic. This might help:
Deezload2bot on telegram You can send spotify links and it will send you the mp3 files
Only mp3, not flac?
You can chose flac aswell, but its slow
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.
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.
