## **Changelog:**
**v1.5 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Made downloading a lot more efficient and probably faster.
- Made the sanitizer more efficient.
- Formatted and linted all the code.
**v1.4 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Added option to encode the downloaded tracks in the "ogg" format rather than "mp3".
- Added small improvement to sanitation function so it catches another edge case.
**v1.3 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Added auto detection about if the current account is premium or not. If it is a premium account it automatically sets the quality to VERY_HIGH and otherwise HIGH if we are using a free account.
- Fixed conversion function so it now exports to the correct bitrate.
- Added sanitation to playlist names to help catch an edge case crash.
- Added option to download all our liked songs into a sub-folder.
**v1.2 (18 Oct 2021):**
- Added .gitignore.
- Replaced dependency list in README.md with a proper requirements.txt file.
- Improved the readability of README.md.
**v1.1 (16 Oct 2021):**
- Added try/except to help catch crashes where a very few specific tracks would crash either the downloading or conversion part.
**v1.0 (14 Oct 2021):**
- Ajusted some functions so it runs again with the newer version of librespot-python.
- Improved my sanitization function so it catches more edge cases.
- Fixed an issue where sometimes spotify wouldnt provide a song id for a track we are trying to download. It will now detect and skip these invalid tracks.
- Added additional check for tracks that cannot be "played" due to licence(and similar) issues. These tracks will be skipped.
**v0.9 (13 Oct 2021):**
- Initial upload, needs adjustments to get working again after backend rewrite.
