The author mentions just downloading the audio track. That's a lot less data than downloading any video at all. ;)

- jordigh 2y ago-f 140 is the right yt-dlp parameter to get just the audio.
- woodson 2y agoI think it's just "-x". It should select the best audio quality automatically.
- amatecha 2y agoOh, I missed that! In that case, yt-dlp -x <url> .. or optionally to convert it to mp3 on the fly: yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 <url> .. or doing so with also the best audio quality available: yt-dlp -f 'ba' -x --audio-format mp3 <url>
