4. Run Quartz
   1. Converting a song: python src/main.py song [song Spotify URL]
   2. Converting a playlist (must be public): python src/main.py playlist [playlist Spotify URL]
   3. Configure the output directory of the file by appending --out-dir [output directory] to the end of either of the above two commands
