Music Scrapper

Music Scrapper is a script for automating music search on music trackers given a folder with music inside.

How does it work ?

The script will go through every folders inside your music folder (which can be changed in config file). If the folder contains a flac file, it will try to find the corresponding torrent with the album name or the performer name. Size is used to ensure that the match is good. The torrent is then downloaded and put in ./torrents folder (can be changed in config)

Additionaly, if multiple trackers are specified, when a torrent is found on one tracker but not another, his torrent id is put into a file (.logs/FoundOn...ButNotOn...) so you can use a tool (for example RedCurry) to upload it on other trackers :)
