Deemix is an open-source command-line tool for downloading music from Deezer. It supports retrieving tracks, albums, artists, playlists, and charts in high-quality formats like FLAC, MP3 (up to 320kbps), AAC, and Opus.

Users must provide a Deezer account login token via an .ARL file, obtained from browser cookies after logging into Deezer. The tool handles metadata embedding, cover art downloads, and organizes files into folders based on configurable formats.

Key features include multi-threaded downloads, quality selection, device emulation for better access, and compatibility with various audio bitrates. It uses Deezer's API indirectly via login tokens, supporting both free and premium account capabilities.

Note: Always ensure you have rights to download content. Violating Deezer's terms or copyright laws is prohibited.

Requires valid .ARL from a Deezer account; project unmaintained since ~2022; use only for authorized content to avoid legal issues and ToS violations; quality availability depends on account type.

pip install deemix or git clone https://github.com/remodoy/deemix-py.git && pip install -r requirements.txt
Run: python deemix.py
