Is the feature request related to a problem. Please describe it.
When downloading music with streamrip, the releasetype tag (album, single, EP) is never written to the downloaded files. Music library managers like Beets, Lidarr, Plex, and opensonic/subsonic clients rely on this tag to correctly categorize releases.
Describe the solution you would like.
Add releasetype to the metadata fields that streamrip writes. Both Deezer and Qobuz expose this in their APIs. Deezer returns it as recordtype ("album", "single", "ep"), Qobuz as release_type. It should be written as RELEASETYPE in FLAC and the equivalent in MP3/MP4.
Describe alternatives you've considered.
Post-processing with a tool like Beets or Picard to fetch and stamp the tag after download, but this requires an extra step and a separate MusicBrainz lookup that may not always match correctly.
