Does anyone have any links for reverse engineering Spotify DRM? I didn't necessarily need it for myself, have plenty of music, and it would be a pretty inefficient means of piracy vs. BitTorrent or like yt-dlp, but I'm curious how it works.

It always seems to me like the analog gap is particularly gaping with audio, and I wonder how far down to the metal it's protected.

I have no clue how to defeat the DRM/rip the songs. But you can just route the audio to a recording program and record it live.

Not ideal but it's a workaround if you really need to download something off of Spoti.
