Does it automatically grab things like metadata (author, cover art, etc.) for you? And if it requires a flag, do you know it?

It’s very automatic with just pointing it at the media’s URL, but also highly configurable if you want.

I don’t bother personally for the most part but it seems like you can do it via --embed-metadata, --parse-metadata, and --embed-thumbnail.

Unless the artist only posts on YouTube, try soulseek. Most files have metadata already included, and if they don’t, you can just download from another user.

May I suggest SpotDL specifically for Spotify: https://github.com/spotDL/spotify-downloader

Does it work anymore? I’ve been getting the 500 error while trying to use it for a couple of months non stop.
