Huh, that looks very interesting. A friend of mine made a streaming service back in the day where you could paste in youtube links, they got downloaded, added to a playlist and then you could listen to that together with friends on multiple computers.

I always wanted to rebuild that and adjust to my needs. Now this convert thing from the OP seems to be an interesting extension to that. Just paste in spotify links, grab the YT one, yt-dlp it and there you go. Ill put this in my favorites, thanks!



The hoops to go through to have a ”legal” napster.

Also not sure yt-dlp is any more legal than just downloading mp3s.


Obviously it's all just a dream in a fantasy world. And even in that fantasy world it would be for friends only, not anything commercial.

Edit: also we don't use mp3, we use free (tm) opus! (as in just yt-dlp -x )
