I have a little app that lets me send it a Spotify playlist and then it goes and finds the matching song on YouTube, converts it, and downloads it all in a big batch. Took forever to fuckin' find and it was of course on a site like that. Been a while since I used it; probably doesn't even work anymore. I tried like 5 others before finding that one, and they were all broken.
The dumb thing is I only wanted it because even though I use the local file thing and still pay for Spotify, it wouldn't actually play anything whenever I didn't have Internet access, making it's own built in system of "downloading" and playing files locally useless.
Just use soulseek or torrenting?
Then I have to find each individual song manually so...
So you managed to initially think of a tool that can automatically do this for YouTube, but not any other platform? come on this is sad, just think for a second.
All I did was search for a tool that could take my Spotify playlist and download mp3s of it. There was no such tool that used any other source besides YouTube. Probably because no other searchable source allows downloads through an API while also comprehensively and correctly labeling the music used.
There's a bunch of tools for other sources.
Such as?
Wouldn't you know it! It's literally the first result!
Might've helped if I knew what soulseek was when I was looking for a specific app and not a plugin for something I didn't know about.
