Youtube-DL has been an incredible tool for a very long time. I have never used it for music, but I have used it for countless educational videos that I intended to use while on a subway or a transcontinental flight.
The experience of consuming media via an offline software is just infinitely better for my focus.
I would rather see Youtube die than Youtube-DL. Youtube-DL has a lot of use cases.
- charcircuit 5y agoI use it for music all of the time. I've downloaded hundreds of songs using it.
- Kaze404 5y agoThat's interesting. I don't personally pirate music (I like collecting CDs), but I know there are much better ways to do so. Some streaming services are so laughably insecure that you can straight up download lossless FLAC from them if you know where to look.
- stemlord 5y agoThat can be done with bandcamp but ironically bandcamp is the one place I'd rather pay because they are a rare platform that's actually pretty good for the artists and listeners alike.
