spotifyripper

note that stream ripping violates the ToC's of libspotify!

                        music library path
  -P, --playback        set if you want to listen to the tracks that are currently ripped (start with "padsp ./jbripper.py ..." if using pulse audio)
  -V VBR, --vbr VBR     Lame VBR quality setting. Equivalent to Lame -V parameter. Default 0
