Where are my files downloaded / How can I change download location?
By default, spotDL downloads to the working directory aka Where you ran spotDL from

You can change the working directory with cd. On Windows, the default working directory is C:\Users\YOURNAME\

Changing Output Directory

Use the --output flag to change ouput directory, e.g. spotdl download [songUrl] --output /home/music/

You can use flags to specify a custom path template. For example, your music could be sorted into nested folders per album. (spotdl [songUrl] --output '{artist}/{album}/{title} - {artist}.{ext}'
You can use the following variables in your path template: {title}, {artists}, {artist}, {album}, {album-artist}, {genre}, {disc-number}, {disc-count}, {duration}, {year}, {original-date}, {track-number}, {tracks-count}, {isrc}, {track-id}, {publisher}, {list-length}, {list-position}, {list-name}, {output-ext}.
