Been trying to determine the best way to download a full collection (no download button on the collection, but on each set of files there is).

DatPiff just dumped their entire library of mix tapes and wanted to grab them all. There are thousands of files, so I was trying to find the best way to handle this?

there is a chrome plugin that does this called Archive Downloader

If you are more technical I have used their command line interface https://archive.org/developers/internetarchive/cli.html

I’ve used jdownloader in the past and it works great!

This actually worked like a charm. I actually used it for modding an Xbox before. Totally forgot about it

They have torrent links on some files. Can you combine the torrents into 1 big torrent?

I've used a browser extension called DownThemAll for this sort of thing. It will scrape recursively and you can add search parameters as well, like a specific filetype. Really useful.

the web extensions version doesn't have all the features of the old one, but it's still a very handy addon.

I haven't tried using it myself, but this tool looks like it might be able to do what you need: https://github.com/john-corcoran/internetarchive-downloader
