Visits to music piracy websites went up more than 13 percent last year, a new report says. The majority of those visits were to sites that allow users to download the audio from YouTube URLs.

This is my time to shine !

I am currently working on this and have a prototype that I am testing : https://github.com/P6g9YHK6/SpotifyRipper

When I have the time to polish it I will dockerise the solution to have an automated spotify scraper ATM it is manually run but works pretty well 🥳

Pull requests are welcome for anything on the todo list 🫡 And github stars will help boost this project popularity 🥰

This looks cool!

Unfortunately I don't know anything about Python or docker... Thanks for the link, maybe I'll try and figure this out on my next holiday.

Just released an update that should take care of most of the libraries requirement for you. Just follow the instructions and it should work

Oh thank god, some songs for some reason are ONLY on Spotify and it drives me nuts

This was one of the issue I had too... I could not make lidarr work with my music tastes so I spent a couple of days prototyping with spotdl to get this working correctly and ended with the current version of the ripper I run it once a week to get the new favs and weekly playlist
