spotify-dl VS Swipify

Spotify streams are encrypted, so unless you can break them, you can't. ffmpeg is an encoding tool, you're seeing that probably because most spotify downloads use spotify for the metadata and download using youtube. spotify-dl, a tool I built few years ago does the same.

not a clue about the ipod bit, but if you have say, a spotify playlist something like https://github.com/SathyaBhat/spotify-dl will delp you get it as mp3s for your use. also the music section of the /r/freemediaheckyeah/ megathread is gold

I've written 3 books (Practical Docker with Python - first and second edition, The CDK Book), organize bunch of events (physical as well as virtual - the most recent being Barcamp Bangalore that is happening this Saturday https://barcampbangalore.com/bcb/), all on the side. In addition there's a small side project that has become fairly popular https://github.com/SathyaBhat/spotify-dl

https://github.com/SathyaBhat/spotify-dl this is the utility which I use to download anything from spotify. what it does is it takes a playlist or particular song and searches it on youtube music and downloads it using ytdlp or some equivalent so somewhere in the code there ought to be a logic which takes a spotify link and returns a youtube link. maybe it's worth grokking if you're into stuff like this.

https://github.com/SathyaBhat/spotify-dl/ (will download from youtube)

Thanks for the amazing work. I think that this would be a good add-on for the "Audio" guide.

Instead of scraping Spotify and YouTube consider using my library’s to download (which itself makes use of YouTube-dlp) https://github.com/sathyabhat/spotify-dl

Currently I'm trying to install and use the spotify_dl packages from python, that is not in the official repository of nixos. There is a good way to install it or have available throw nix-shell?

Hey, I've been working on some side projects for my resume, and made an Android app for Spotify. The app matches songs with you based on your other top songs/genres/artists. You can swipe left to add it to your "Swipify" playlist that gets created when you connect Spotify with the app. None of your personal information is stored or even connected to me, and you can see the source code here. Please give it a try if you're using Spotify through Android, or even give it a star on GitHub if you're a fellow dev!
