Can you use the embedded ISRC tags to scan the output directory for existing files with their tags?
that way you can automatically skip those in the background and only attempt to download the missing ones.

A few songs are failing to download, so automatically skipping those would be nice

from pathlib import Path
from mutagen.flac import FLAC

flac_dir = Path(".")
isrc_map = {}

for flac_file in flac_dir.rglob("*.flac"):
    audio = FLAC(flac_file)
    isrc = audio.tags.get("ISRC", [None])[0]
    isrc_map[isrc] = flac_file.name

You can get all the codes here and check if the code already exists. avoids issues with file naming differences and different path locations
