## What it is

It supports interactive and 'lucky' search modes, album/artist/playlist/label downloads, last.fm playlist imports, duplicate handling, and cover art embedding, requiring an active Qobuz subscription.

## Use cases

- download hi-res music from the terminal
- convert a spotify or apple music playlist to downloaded flac files via last.fm
- bulk download an artist's discography excluding singles and EPs
- interactively search and queue music downloads from the command line
- embed cover art into downloaded music files
- download all albums from a record label

## When to choose
- you have a Qobuz subscription and want lossless or Hi-Res downloads
- you want a terminal-based interactive music downloader
- you need to import playlists from Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube via last.fm and download the tracks
- you want duplicate-free downloads tracked in a portable database

## When to avoid
