Bug Description
After a while of downloading my long playlists, it crashes with AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'access_token'. From starting Zotify via the command, it took roughly 3703 seconds (or slightly more than an hour and one minute) before it crashed on the AttributeError.

Bug Triggering Command

zotify \
  --download-lyrics=true \
  --download-format=mp3 \
  --download-quality=very_high \
  -rp . \
  -ie True \
  --md-allgenres True \
  --retry-attempts 5 \
  --bulk-wait-time=10 \
  -rt True \
  -f songs.txt

songs.txt contains about 13 playlists, some having upwards of 600 songs. This is being downloaded in real time.

this is what I was seeing too.

At the moment I have downgraded to v0.9.10 for more reliability.

I am 99% sure this error is caused by the upstream librespot-python library, which means downgrading this library should have no effect. If downgrading actually does solve this, I would be extremely surprised. Working on a simple fix for this upstream.

I am 99% sure this error is caused by the upstream [librespot-python](https://github.com/kokarare1212/librespot-python) library, which means downgrading this library _should_ have no effect.

@ulyxie See if updating to v0.9.25, which uses a new (much cleaner) patch of the upstream library, fixes this. If so, I will push the improvement upstream.

I updated and started the run. I will report when it concludes but it will take a few hours if it is indeed fixed.

TL;DR: it appears to be fixed now, only time will tell.

So the command is still running. About 2 hours after I wrote my previous comment, it crashed on some File exception so I reran the command with debug flag enabled. Since then it has been running happily with no issue. I will keep monitoring in case something else breaks and will trim the debug log so it's not this long. If the file exception happens again, I will create a new bug report. Sorry Googolplexed0 for being such a demanding user.

Beating the previous 1 hour limit is a good sign!

Sorry Googolplexed0 for being such a demanding user.

I don't think that at all, I want to help you and make this library better. Thank you for appreciating my work.

Update on this issue. After 27 hours no exception related to this was thrown. Bad file descriptor was the exception that was thrown so I will make a new issue.
