Sites for downloading high quality music files

MrRazamataz@lemmy.razbot.xyz to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 91 points –

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.

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?

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.

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.
