I understand these tools download music from spotify servers imitating that you are streaming or “downloading for offline listening”? Are there any risks of getting a ban on the account or something? It would be better if tool would extract already downloaded music for offline listening or intercept download when you press download on spotify on premium account.
I don't believe those tools download directly from Spotify. They use the Spotify api to gather the metadata then they download the files off YouTube.
As I've seen others say, probably what you want to do is download them off Tidal or Quboz. Those YouTube rips suck.
I just looked up, what about librespot? Does anyone have experience with it? Would that help to achieve such results?
