There are some albums that I genuinely can’t find anywhere else, they barely seem to exist. Is there a good way to turn a full album on youtube to a bunch of seperate files for each song, a shortcut to getting the metadata right for each song, etc? Or is downloading the whole thing and manually chopping it up the only way?
Yt-dlp is the usual answer. There’s a script for when people have song chapters someone linked as well as the surprisingly decent mp3split-gtk, also already referenced.
Speaking as a soulseek user, be careful. You are now manually deciding what users you will accept data from with only the validation and security your computer or you yourself provide. It is incredibly easy to look up desirable rare recordings and create believable dummy files with a payload.
