Just use yt-dlp instead of relying on websites that shove ads in your face and may do what ever they want to the files you're downloading?
The worst ever suggestion and unfortunately the most upvoted. Do not ever download music from youtube, free-mp3-download was a front-end for deezer with flacs and 320 kbps mp3 and music on youtube is only about 160 kbps, that's kinda okay for streaming but absolutely ridiculous if you want to download and keep it.
Okay, but yt-dlp can rip Deezer...

You can use yt-dlp to download from other website, not only on YouTube.
Why do people still download music from YouTube in 2024? The quality is awful and it's not even the easiest method of music piracy.
Some music I like are fan covers/remixes that may only be on YouTube.
It was possible to download lossless FLAC files (they got them straight from Deezer) though, so higher quality than anything downloaded from Youtube etc.
YouTube is absolutely unacceptable quality. The difference is clearly audible even on $5 earbuds. I feel sorry for your ears if you don't hear the difference, but the vast majority of those who care enough to download music will be able to tell the difference.
I personally pay for Deezer HiFi and save the FLACs locally. Friends mostly do the same with Tidal, but both work well for this purpose.
If you want to find FLACs without paying for a service you can check out rutracker. It has torrents for discographies from a lot of famous artists. Alternatively, you could find a stolen account for one of the previously mentioned services, but that goes too far for my morals because you're hurting a normal person with a hacked account.
Despite all the naysayers in the comments, this is the correct answer. No ad-riddled websites, no weird guis. just "yt-dlp < url of whatever you want to rip >" in bash.
Lots of people responding to this need to acquaint themselves with the raw power of yt-dlp. It isn't just for YouTube. You can rip Deezer and other streaming audio services. You can rip pretty much any video site. It even takes RSS and M3U8 links and will rip live streams.
On Android I use Newpipe for downloading audio-only.
But I want 320mbps and I don't want the extra sounds that come with some music videos.
Well I've found you can avoid the extra sounds as long as its available on YouTube music specifically, as that is a music specific platform but you have to only select from the songs section and not the Videos section. You get less selections than you would've before but not really since those extra ones weren't even songs, but rather music videos.
Also Lyric videos basically never have any sounds in them.
(Doesn't address the quality issues since many YouTube videos are limited in audio quality, I've found downloaders that can do it but it's hit or miss).
Deemix works great for flac or 320kbps mp3, it's really easy to get ARI codes for free
If you like cli try streamrip on github. Then you can download from deezer, qobuz, or tidal. Like you said, there lots of free arl for those online.
A much simpler solution is using doubledouble for those not as tech savvy.
Deezloader and Harmony Music are still available.
Is that a real Deezloader website? That website looks shady af.
Deezer sent out a mail that they are closing the free service so it may not work anymore (without a paid Deezer account)
Subbing for a month, then downloading Gigabytes of properly tagged FLACs doesn't sound too bad tbh
Yup. This was already reported here: https://lemmy.zip/post/11507545
This guide is enough for all of your needs.
I did not know about this one. I was using my free mp3 juices but that seems to have died in the beginning of this year.
buy that domain to stop a malware website from buying it (if free mp3 download team don't keep the domain)
