I am making a script that can download high quality music files, currently from free-mp3-download.net and slavart.gamesdrive.net. Are there any others? I could look into torrenting things automatically and maybe looking into Lidarr? Not 100% on how that works but any ideas on what else I could add or links to other places I can download high quality music files lmk.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I've found Jackett that could be promising, but still open to other ideas/sites.
EDIT: Thank you all for your responses.

But use nicotine+ as the client instead of soulseekqt. Is better.

I use Slskd

Runs as a web app, so I can remotely start downloads and have them drop into my music server

Hell yeah that sounds good too!

As a new user of ss/nicotine+, I absolutely love it. Even found some TV episodes I've been missing. I need to figure out how to share over VPN though, since my VPN doesn't support port forwarding :(

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah mine used to support port forwarding and I'm still mad they stopped. You can use the VPN though and slsk without PF, but you'll only be able to connect to people who do PF, so you just limit your connectability.

Why is nicotine+ better?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Does it work better than the slsknet.org client?

Try soulseek, has been a while since i used it but you can find almost anything there from my experience and in good quality too

I have downloaded 4TB of flac from Deezer using DeeMix downloader. U now need a premium account for flac and DeeMix is no longer supported but it still works.

I use a similar approach with Tidal and Tidal-Media-Downloader. I use a paid Tidal account to integrate into my Plex library, then scripted downloads to ensure that stuff stays in my Plex library.

What kind of files can you get, and do they come tagged well?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I get .flac files that are generally tagged with everything except genre. Bandcamp (where I legally obtain files when I can) doesn't tag genre either, so it's at least consistent across my library.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Good to know, thank you!

(Yeah, weird that Bandcamp has zero genre tags, ever!)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Deemix is so good. It's a great benefit to having a legit sub.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

ARLs for FLACs are easily available. So Deemix still works smoothly.

The only issue I have found is that it often doesn't download LRC files.

Those happen to be two of the three I have in my bookmarks, the third being https://doubledouble.top

Interesting, thank you
