Conclusion & Suggestion

In order to make it clearer for you to get the differences between these two Spotify music recording tools, we made a comparison sheet as below for your reference.

In general, both Spotify recorders are able to meet your requirements to download and record Spotify songs in lossless quality. The shortcoming of TunesKit Audio Capture is that it records Spotify music in 1:1 real time and there would be a little quality loss in recorded music. So if you care much about the recording speed and output quality, you'd better go for TunesKit Spotify Music Downloader which claims lossless output quality and 5X speedy downloading. However, if you want to record not only Spotify music, but also other streaming music like Apple Music, Pandora, etc., TunesKit Audio Capture will still be a better option for you.
