Is there rippers for Spotify?

[–] gerowen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That I don't know. I mean you could always just use something to record the sound played by your PC, but at that point A) You're not getting as good of quality as you would from an actual download of the source material and you'd have to manually assign metadata, make sure no notifications or other sounds played, make sure your recording settings were optimum, etc. It's easier, right now at least, to just buy what you want on CD or from a store that sells digital downloads legitimately.

The sound isolation could be fixed by using a separate audio channel for Spotify, but no way it's gonna be worth the effort as it's not gonna be as good quality and if you're considering doing all that you would be better off sailing the high seas (on one of the big music trackers)
