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.

[-] RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 11 months ago

Never heard of it... Always used on the spot

Is it better?

[-] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 4 points 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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

[-] jungekatz@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months 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

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] Lemmyboi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 11 months ago

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

[-] nickiam2@aussie.zone 9 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

Cool, what kind of quality would it be?

[-] nickiam2@aussie.zone 4 points 11 months ago

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

[-] vildis@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] Carter@feddit.uk 6 points 11 months ago

Download from Deezer or Qobuz instead.

[-] generalEdo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago

I have been using zotify and it is pretty great.

[-] bartolomeo@suppo.fi 5 points 11 months ago
[-] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 4 points 11 months ago

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

[-] hunt4peas@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months 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.
[-] guts@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

I use the bot @spotify_down_bot on Telegram.

[-] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 months 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 11 months ago
[-] Sailing7@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months 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.

[-] tiwenty@jlai.lu 2 points 11 months ago

You take a Deezer account and use Deemix :p

[-] d4sm4dd1n@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months 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.

[-] nick@feddit.de -5 points 11 months ago

I'd just just use youtube-dl honestly

[-] burgersc12@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

I'd rather use SoulSeek than youtube-dl
