@Googolplexed0 Did you try to test yourself to download a track without api key? After reading multiple messages here, It seems that no one was successful in doing so.

Yes, I have tested this myself and have no issues, even with the track you have provided. This issue is either related to your account being denied by the API or some other issue within the upstream repository librespot-python.
