I really want to capture some of my Spotify playlists and convert them to MP3 format so I can listen to them on my old MP3 player. I've already tried some freeware but the result was so bad, it didn't work properly. Does someone have a better and legal alternative I could try? Thank you!
There is no legal way to obtain the MP3s from Spotify since the protocols are encrypted. There were a few attempts and there is a script that works, but you need Linux and a lot of knowledge to make it work. The best way is to use the track's name and then YouTube with a video downloader.
For starters, you can use the following service: http://www.youtube-mp3.org/
There exist legal ways with some 3rd party softwares. You can try tunebite premium for this purpose, it's a pretty useful software for audio streaming. It records and converts everything you want, also of course to mp3. And the quality doesn't suffer from this process. Additionally you can record with double speed which makes it even better :) But keep in mind that this is only legal as long as you keep it to yourself and don't publish it to someone else. But read for yourself more about it here: http://audials.com/en/how_to_record_internet_radios/spotify.html
If you don't mind spending a lot of time, use Audacity to record Spotify music. Or, you can try a third-party Spotify to MP3 Converter. Such software can legally convert Spotify playlist to common audio formats like MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, etc without ads and even without premium. The converted Spotify files can be played on any device and player.
You can use some professional Spotify to MP3 converter like Tunelf. I already use this converter to convert Spotify songs to MP3. And I got some great Spotify songs in MP3 with high quality. After you convert Spotify music to MP3. You can play them on any device that supports MP3 and you can save them forever.
1.Install Spotify and this converter on your computer. 2.Drag the Spotify songs to this converter. 3.Choose the format for your Spotify songs. 4.Click the Convert button.
I use Audkit Spotify Converter to convert music from Spotify to MP3. The conversion speed sometimes can reach 10X. And the output sound quality keeps 320kpbs which even higher than the Spotify original songs.
To get Spotify to MP3 legally, I use the DRmare Spotify MP3 Converter. With this tool, I can save Spotify to MP3 without any limit and use the Spotify songs anywhere and anytime by myself with ease.
To play Spotify on your old MP3 players, you need to download the Spotify playlist to MP3 first with a Spotify Music converter like Tuneskit Spotify Music Converter. After that, you are able to listen to Spotify on any device.
