how to download a complete album?
 
Some P2P softwares allows to search and download albums, but on PC only.
Is there any function for that on Lime?

There are a reasonable no. of people who offer albums. Search for the artist name - album name followed by whole, complete, entire, album, or albumwrap. The disadvantage with whole albums is they are a single mp3 & you have to separate them. Search the forum & you can find an app that does it.

The reason I say albumwrap is b/c there's a softw that's called Albumwrap that allows you to wrap an entire album together much like a zip file but it plays as a single mp3. But if you have Albumwrap Extractor you can separate these songs. The disadvantage is that each individual song does not have a name so you have to find that out for yourself. Also, some are called albumwrap but were not put together using albumwrap program. Albumwrap is shareware but the Extractor is FREE. Albumwrap can be found HERE! & is available for both Mac & Windows.

I should add to that! Plusses & Minuses of Albumwrapp & alternative individual song separater for album mp3's I hope that answers your question. Apparently there is another type of albumwrap that can't be opened with this particular albumwrap. When I find more about it I'll post it here.

Here's some pointers for those that encode/wrap using Albumwrap & also some things to be aware of for those that downld them: Please follow these Albumwrap Chapter 1 Helpful Wrapping points (click on link) ;)

Alternative to Albumwrap is (a) albaextractor: 1. Link 1, - 2. Link 2, - 3. Link 3, - 4. Link 4
and (b) Mp3Wrap: 1. Link 1, - 2. Link 2, - 3. Link 3, - 4. OSX version Link, - 5. Strictly Linux version Link
and (c) WraptorLab: Info & downld link and (d) M3aExtract and (e) Wrapster / UnWrapper


Splitters (not wrappers but detect silence between songs): 1. Mp3Splt for Windows/Linux (i386 debian package) & MacOSX (AlbumExtractorX) & 2. Mp3directcut / Description & downld A / Desc. & downld B which have Silence detection. And then there's 3. mp3Split

This link seems to have some handy ideas about this topic: "I downloaded an album, but I cant split it!"

Other links for tools: m3aExtract & more
* Mac OS 10.3.9 or later: File Juicer & its mp3/mp4 support is a shareware extractor for many types of multimedia formats. It seems to work with ALBW files that Albumwrap extractor can't handle. A nice alternative considering there's not much in the way of other Mac OSX options.

An additional read for some people is to read Alternative to Albumwrap for artist & album organisation
