Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binimum/tidal-ui/issues/38

If downloading a full album as a zip, the filename structure should just be (for example)
01 West End Girls (2023 Remaster)
02 Song
03 Song

Some of these titles are too long to actually extract! (more than 260 characters)

You're right. I think the following format is sufficient. 👍

Song Number. Artist - Song Title.flac (01. George Michael - Faith.flac)

I didn't actually mean this, I meant this;
"01 Faith.flac" in the folder "George Michael - Album" or just "Album"

This is how iTunes / Apple Music stores files (see my screenshot) and also how downloads from DAB / QobuzDL worked
