I know this is kind of baby pirate knowledge but ive always just used a downloader for my streaming service. I have since moved to Linux entirely (massive win BTW, patting myself on the back for that) but there is no Linux-compatible downloader for my specific service. At least not one with the bulk functionality I would like. Any downloaders for Tidal or other sources of high-quality audio, likely to have some relatively niche old death metal? I'm a nerd about the quality.

edit: Just looked at the megathread and there seems to be some tools compatible with Tidal. Regardless, are there any applications that are alternatives? I'd like to see ALL of my options <3

It's also supported by Prowlarr if you want to automate downloads using Lidarr.

Having said that, note that many uploads on rutracker are raw CD dumps (ISO file, plus a CUE file specifying when the tracks start and end) which Lidarr doesn't support directly, so you'll have to manually convert to FLAC and split it yourself. Once you do that, you can manually import the files into Lidarr and it'll tag and arrange the files for you.
