Enjoying CSVMusic? Buy me a coffee

Convert playlists and albums from music links or CSV exports into fully tagged audio files.

CSVMusic accepts playlist and album links from supported music services, or a playlist exported as CSV from TuneMyMusic, and automatically:

  • Finds the best match on YouTube Music
  • Downloads the audio
  • Adds metadata such as artist, album, and artwork
  • Outputs ready-to-use M4A or MP3 files
  • Optionally creates .m3u / .m3u8 playlists

What's New In 1.5.1

  • Paste playlist or album links directly into the app instead of exporting a CSV first.
  • Supported direct links include Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, YouTube playlists, SoundCloud sets, Deezer, and Amazon Music pages when public track data is available.
  • Large Spotify, Deezer, YouTube, and YouTube Music playlists can load across multiple pages where the service exposes them.
  • The app now shows a generic Playlist May Be Incomplete warning when any direct URL import appears partial or cannot prove it found every track.
  • Incomplete-import warnings explain that missing tracks will be skipped and include TuneMyMusic CSV export steps.
  • Spotify playlist links may expose only the first 100 tracks publicly; use TuneMyMusic CSV export for complete large Spotify playlists.
  • The tutorial now includes a general TuneMyMusic CSV workflow with a direct TuneMyMusic link.
  • Load Playlist can resume from either the original link or a CSV export.
  • Downloads now auto-scroll to keep the active item in view.

How It Works

  1. Open the app. First launch may take a few seconds.
  2. Click Choose... next to Source.
  3. Paste a supported playlist or album link, then load it.
  4. Choose an output folder.
  5. Click Start.

CSV import is still available when a service link is unsupported, private, incomplete, or when CSVMusic warns that a URL import may not contain every track:

  1. Click Choose... next to Source.
  2. Select CSV File.
  3. Use the TuneMyMusic link in that window if you need to create a CSV:
    • Choose the original music service as the source.
    • Paste the same playlist link, or connect the service if TuneMyMusic asks.
    • Export to file as a CSV file.
  4. Load the CSV, choose an output folder, and click Start.

If a song cannot be matched confidently:

  • It will show up highlighted in yellow.
  • Click Alternatives to pick a better result.
  • Use Listen to preview a candidate in your browser.

What You Get

  • Audio files with:
    • Correct artist/title
    • Album info
    • Embedded artwork
  • Optional playlist files:
    • .m3u
    • .m3u8

Everything is ready to drop into iTunes, a phone, an MP3 player, or a local music library.

Important Notes

  • Keep all files in the extracted folder together.
  • The packaged app includes:
    • ffmpeg
    • yt-dlp
  • Some antivirus software may flag bundled download/processing tools. These are usually false positives.
  • Your CSV stays local. Direct links are fetched only to read public playlist or album metadata.
  • YouTube Music / YouTube is contacted to search and download audio.
  • Cookies are optional, but may help with age-restricted or sign-in-only videos.
  • Current YouTube extraction may require a supported JavaScript runtime. Packaged releases include the needed yt-dlp extras; source installs should use pip install -e . so yt-dlp[default] is installed. Node 22+ or Deno 2.3+ is recommended if YouTube reports player challenge errors.
  • Private playlists or pages that hide track data may not import directly. If that happens, export a CSV from TuneMyMusic and load that instead.
  • Large Spotify playlist links can be capped at 100 tracks by Spotify's public page data. If CSVMusic warns about this, open Choose... > TuneMyMusic, choose Spotify as the source, paste the same playlist link, export as CSV, then load that CSV through Choose... > CSV File.

Supported Sources

Direct link import supports public playlist or album pages from:

  • Spotify
  • Apple Music
  • YouTube Music
  • YouTube playlists
  • SoundCloud sets
  • Deezer
  • Amazon Music, when the page exposes public track data

CSV import supports any service TuneMyMusic can export, including most other music platforms.
