Money has been really tight and looking to cut monthly expenses. Is there a way to rip a spotify collection?

    Yes but you would need to do it in real time and cut the files up manually, unfortunately.

    There is no way to “rip” or download the files directly but you could record a playlist with screen sharing software such as Geforce Experience or just plug the line out of your device into a recorder or virtually record it using software like Audacity.

    TBH if you need to save money you are better off just using a free Spotify account and running a decent adblocker like Ublock Origin &/or Pi-Hole to block most of the ads (although I haven’t not had premium for a while so not sure how well that still works).

    Otherwise start grabbing old CDs from charity shops, eBay and the like or just resort to piracy.
