Hello everyone,
I thought I had found the solution by importing my playlists from Spotify and then using STAMP, but this program refuses to open because my version of MacOSX 10.6.8 is "has been" for the said program...sniff!
If any one of you could give me a solution, I would be eternally grateful: yes, really!
A thousand and one thanks!

It's true, but unfortunately not the .csv to .mp3... But thanks anyway!
Good evening,
Normal,
a .csv file is not an audio file like .mp3
You cannot convert a .csv file into an mp3 file. It's impossible.
.csv files are produced by software like Excel, address books, list management software... "csv" means:
"comma separated value", meaning "values separated by commas"... in short, anything but audio files.

Always indicate your exact system configuration and read the entire answer given

Thank you, Francis! And a program to "replace" STAMP, intended for Mac versions later than mine (10.6.8)? Below is the link so you can understand my dismay.

I read your link, it talks about importing playlists, not converting a playlist into pieces of music.
If I understand correctly, you use Spotify (which I've never tried), and from Spotify you have music tracks. You should be able to import these tracks into iTunes without any problem, but your concern isn't that, if I understand correctly, your concern is to recover the playlists created by Spotify (playlists that categorize the tracks by themes, for example).
It seems to be the purpose of STAMP mentioned in the link you gave me.
I can’t test anything because I don’t use Spotify.
You say that STAMP isn’t suitable for your version of Mac OS, it’s not indicated on the publisher's site, but I suppose you found that out the hard way :)
In any case, it’s likely a script that retrieves the data from a CSV list to put it into iTunes in the form of a playlist. (normally for this, the tracks need to already be imported into iTunes)
I know absolutely nothing about Spotify, so I apologize if I’m saying silly things, but if these music tracks from Spotify are stored separately on the Mac, the best thing to do first is to import them into iTunes and tag them in iTunes on, for example, Comment and Grouping, to isolate them within the entire library.
Personally, I have tracks I’ve purchased here and there, for example, tracks from Qobuz which I put into a Qobuz playlist when importing, and that doesn’t prevent me from putting those same tracks into other playlists, like "John’s Wedding," "Relax," "Jazz," "Slideshow of...." ... etc...
Then, if the STAMP software doesn’t work, maybe a script found online can do the job?
By searching I found, for example, this:
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/193731/sync-transfer-spotify-playlist-to-apple-music/194528#194528
or this:
https://github.com/simonschellaert/spotify2am
I’m sorry that I can’t help more, but I don’t have the opportunity to test since I’m not a Spotify user.

Dear Francis,
It's really nice of you to take the time to find me various solutions to this problem. Honestly, I appreciate it! I read and opened the two links, and they seem suitable for the resolution...
