With youtube-music, it's never been easier to download full albums directly from YouTube. Downloaded music is converted to mp3 and automatically given the correct metadata (i.e. track number, artist name, and album name). Works on any UNIX-like system with the correct dependencies installed.
- curl
- id3v2
- youtube-dl
- ffmpeg (for conversion to mp3)

$ mkdir music_download
