Soulseek is better for more popular tracks and artists and in normally better quality.
Freyr can be fed a spotify/apple music link, find the highest quality version and pull the file from YouTube music or YouTube. Then it will automatically write the appropriate metadata and cover art to the songs.
If all else fails, yt-dlp to directly rip from YouTube.
Or buy it legally. In the past I’ve gotten songs by buying from Artists’ website, bandcamp, and iTunes.

Are those Android or Linux tools?
Nicotine+ is a FOSS multi-platform gui for Soulseek and runs on Linux, *BSD, macOS, and Windows.
Freyr is a CLI tool that can either built manually for Linux I believe or ran in Docker on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
yt-dlp is a CLI tool that has compiled binaries or can be installed through a package manager on Linux, BSD, macOS, and Windows.
