[Download] Throttling / sleep to avoid rate limiting

[L-at-nnes]

On big playlists (500+ tracks), some services start to rate limit ( tested with Qobuz). Right now downloads just run as fast as possible.

It would help to have a basic throttle, for example: sleep every X tracks for Y seconds

So the downloader does: download X tracks ==> sleep Y seconds ==> continue.

Two settings in the GUI would be enough:

• tracks per batch

• pause between batches (seconds)

Even a very simple implementation would already reduce rate limits and failed requests.

Thanks.
