Side note: my favorite radio show is uploaded to Grooveshark and the other day I needed to listen it offline, so I just used a proxy (fiddler) and save the stream from the proxy session console. There is an API where you can do the same, I think, because is just one request with the location of the MP3 audio. There are a lot of apps for downloading mp3 from Grooveshark but they usually came with a lot of crapware.



You can do the same with play.spotify.com, but you need premium account instead of API access.

With ID3 tagging it's a great way to keep your offline music organized even with devices which do not have Spotify on them.


if do not mind Ruby. I am sure you can use https://github.com/sosedoff/grooveshark and wget.


The way I do it is much simple and it's not using the API. Just open the proxy sessions in Fiddler and save the response.
