things worth knowing

small files get attached to the message. bigger ones come back as a link that works for a day

discord's size limit depends on who ran the command, and nitro raises it. so the same album can arrive as a file for one person and a link for someone else. that's discord, not the bot. if you want it to always attach, use opus.

^^ fyi it's 10MB for no nitro, 50MB for nitro basic users, 500MB for discord nitro users

albums and playlists come back as a single zip rather than one message per track

it caches everything it rips, so asking for the same thing twice is instant. files get cleared out after a week

spotify links work by finding the same recording on apple music. it matches on title, artist and duration, so it won't hand you a cover or a remix by mistake. sometimes a track isn't on apple music at all, and it'll tell you which
