Long story short, I got a couple Apple Music playlists I want offline copies of. How hard is that to do?

If I can get them on Spotify, I know of a couple Spotify scrapers that would let me download them... I think. I've done albums and I've done songs. I've never thrown a whole ass playlist at it (we're talking 500 songs... each).

I'm not gonna stop paying for Apple Music, but offline/archival is nice.

Do you have a paid/premium apple music account? if yes it's easy and you can even download lossless from apple music: https://github.com/glomatico/gamdl#%EF%B8%8F-wrapper

Have you maybe managed to pull alacs? I downloaded aac, but alac fail after I try to fill in 2fa. Some error occurs there. I would love to get my music in alac as this tool is fine in oreserving metadata, text, covers etc.
