I put my answer in, but this is the only true answer.
I gotta try that second one, thanks!
I used to have to, when the monitor does not have any modern ports, you have to get creative with adapters.
Source: Me with my own 1050ti stuck into an optiplex build and early 2000s monitor because I was broke
You could say... They tried TheirBest?
Honestly, well done to him.
'$ ' indicates a new command (pressing enter) do not type in the space when doing command, only for legibility here.
First type in zotify, in which you can log in, if you don't care about 320kbps music please feel free to make a new Spotify account for this purpose, as if the (very very low) chance it gets banned who cares, idk if 10minutemail works with Spotify.
To search and download something:
$ zotify
$ Keyword for song, album, artist name (eg. The Dark Side of The Moon)
$ number of your selection, top ten of each are shown with a number next, just enter the number and enter
To Download an album, playlist, etc straight up
Copy link of playlist, album, etc in Spotify
$ zotify "paste link here"
It's that easy, should just straight up download
Options; use these by just adding them into the first zotify command after the word 'zotify', change values to whatever you want it to do
--download-lyrics=false : does not download the .lrc file and therefore no lyric metadata
--download-format=mp3 : sets download format to mp3, can change to flac, ogg, vorbis, opus (what I use), etc
--download-quality=very_high : if singed in on a premium account, the download quality will be 320kpbs, this should automatically happen, set to high, medium, etc to use free tier listening quality
zotify -l : stands for liked, simply downloads all songs the user has liked
These can all be used in the one command, by just stating one after the other eg:
zotify -l --download-lyrics=false --download-format=mp3 --download-quality=high
If any of this is wrong or does not make sense feel free to let me know and I will clarify, this was made at 4am after cleaning up dog shit :)
E:oh I don't remember how to change directory, I just download them cut and paste to new one, takes 2min even for 2000 song playlists if you have an SSD for me at least
If you're on Linux try zotify, amazingly easy to use, straight from the source, and fast!
Quick disclaimer: some people report their accounts being banned, but I have personally downloaded 6500+ songs and I have been fine as well as plenty of others with similar numbers. If you want to play it safe, you can download really slowly at 1x speed and Spotify can't tell the difference between downloading and playing media.
The individuals who work with us are amazing ppl, it absolutely sucks that the group as a whole is pisswater
If using Android, use xtra
