jbleck Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 A somewhat raw guide on how to get access to retail music for offline usage from Google PlayRequirements:WindowsVPN or a Proxy in case u're not able to access Google Play Music by default (added by emerglines)Google AccountGoogle Music Manager (optional)IDMTC (or alternative for easy search, move, rename)mp3DirectCutFirefox / Opera / IE (a browser that supports the "IDM download panel" on Google Play Music)Steps:Sign up for a free trial subscription to Google Play MusicSearch and start listening to your selected song : https://play.google.com/music/Grab the parts of the MP3 file from your browser's cache (Google splits the song in 30 seconds parts and renames them) to your selected folderRename the parts properly and put them in order (test it if done correctly by listening to the playlist with your media player)Join the MP3 file the parts with mp3DirectCut's Batch processing... Ctrl+BUpload the homemade MP3 file to your Google Play account (if this is done instantly then it means that Google already has a version of that file already which will be added to your library or u have a fast upload speed; right click on the song and click "Edit Info" from your browser context menu... if u're able to "Use Suggestions" it means u've done a good job)Start playback and download the retail MP3 file (now a single file) with the IDM download panelGraphic hints:After a few tests seems that Opera is more likely to get the right mp3 parts compared to Firefox (might be that my Firefox settings are influencing the parts... not sure).
