The tool retrieves important information such as album art, song titles, artist names, and lyrics to organize downloaded files. spotDL is designed to be fast, accurate, and easy to use through a simple command-line interface. It supports downloading individual songs, albums, or entire playlists by providing Spotify URLs or search queries. By combining Spotify metadata with YouTube audio sources, spotDL provides a convenient way to build a local music library.

MediaCrate is a video and audio downloader for Windows. Save media from supported websites, choose an output such as MP4 or MP3, and manage one link or several downloads in a queue. Previews show titles, thumbnails, quality choices, and size estimates when available. Each queued item has its own format and controls. Bulk paste, URL-list import and export, search, and status filters help manage longer lists. Pause or retry downloads, limit transfer speed, and choose filenames, folders, and what happens to existing files. Open completed files from local History. Saved queues can be restored on the next launch. FFmpeg is needed to merge or convert media; some websites also need Node.js. Install missing components from Settings > Dependencies.
