Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/afkarxyz/SpotiDownloader/issues/3

  1. it seems to not download any album art. this isnt too terrible as spotify's album art can be easily grabbed on its own if you know what you're doing but i figured i'd mention it because the website is capable, so maybe there is a workaround.
  2. if you are downloading songs from an album, there is a 50 song limit (this is only really an issue if you're like me and downloading video game soundtracks~)
    but a good workaround i've found is if you just make the album a playlist on spotify, there does not appear to be a song limit.

I have tried modifying the API from Spotifydown, but it is still limited to 50 tracks. Meanwhile, my extractor successfully displays 80 tracks. In the next update, I will replace it with my extractor, but the process might be a bit slower since it uses a scraper extractor instead of a direct API.

Actually, it's not just on your end; there is indeed a bug in SpotifyDown GUI. The one I screenshotted is the updated version of the software. Perhaps I'll continue debugging it tomorrow, as there's also a bug in the TokenGrabber. I'll update them together once I feel it's good enough.
