Description
Hello,
whenever I download a set, the track order is lost.
SoundCloud order:

iTunes (ID3 tag) order:

Reference set: https://soundcloud.com/edbangerrecords/sets/fulgeance-the-phoenix-ep
I'm using SoundScrape 0.29.4
Thanks,
Jonas

Start by reproducing the reference SoundCloud set with SoundScrape 0.29.4 and compare the downloaded track sequence with the set order. Trace the download and ID3 metadata handling involved in ordering; done means the downloaded tracks retain SoundCloud's order in iTunes.
