There is a problem when downloading songs with special characters. The script attempts to download a song with a name that includes a special character(such as '|' or ' " '), but cannot finish downloading the song because windows forbids those characters to be included in file name. After a few errors, the script skips the song and moves on to the next song in the list.

However, what I thought was a loop in that one error is actually a different problem. The script actually loops the first page. It will skip a song it cannot download, move on to the next song, and continue until it is finished with all the songs on the page. Then it goes back to the top and does it all over, leaving me looking at the same error for the same song over and over again.

Above are two songs that produce the error.
