[aksss]

All this talk is probably going to force me to try it this weekend cuz science, right?

I don’t know if I’d really notice quality[0] degradation too much, my use case would be the local storage in my vehicle for long trips with dodgy cell coverage. I’ve been burned a couple times by Spotify auto-clearing previously downloaded playlists, only to find out after I’m without data coverage / in the air.

I have a couple ideas about making the process more efficient, as in process running in the background. You are essentially restricted to a 1x rip speed, but I shouldn’t think I’d need to babysit it much and the post processing can be largely automated, perhaps less time than I remember it taking to find equivalent torrents, dl and clean those up. I mean, duration would be longer but level of effort on par or less.

Will report back.
