Using this as an opportunity to promote the new Soulseek community: !soulseek@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Nah, I’m over that kind of shit. I used to DJ on Second Life and people were playing songs but it was obvious they ripped it from YouTube. Because the songs would either be the music video version, it would have some opening intro or an ending, worst if the video ends with asking for subscribers. Audio quality was always shit.
I know that falls under lazily editing to cut them out, but ripping YouTube videos for audio is just a lazy form of pirating.
I use both lidarr and yt-dlp. Lidarr for when I want full albums in high bitrate, and yt for smaller songs where I don’t want the whole album.
Both as containers on my server, and they download to a folder navidrome scans. Pretty slick.
yt-dlp was created in October 2020, Soulseek in April 2001, torrents in Juli 2001. Your “ol’ reliable” was created 5 years ago, 19 years younger than its competition. Youtube itself was founded in 2005.
I’m not sure you know what “ol’ reliable” means ;)
yt-dlp is a fork of youtube-dl, which was released in 2006.
She is over 18 but is it appropriate
And still younger than the other 2, invalidating the initial point of the meme all the same.
Whooosh
Riiight. It’s just a shit joke. That would explain why I forgot to laugh.
you people are soulless
No, soulseek
‘you people’? A fine starter to any topic.
I counted the original youtube-dl as the same for the sake of the meme; but you aren’t wrong.
Why would I want shitty mp3s when I can get crispy flacs just as easily? Fkn lol
Maybe enjoy crispy 128 .opus? Yeah flacs are on another level… But 100MB/file just doesn’t justify the negligeable quality increase you won’t even notice anymore in your late 40s !
However, saving TB of disk space does !
What are you downloading that’s 100MB?
Maybe a WAV.There is a solution to this, get a real flac and convert it to opus 🙂
That’s great for you but I fucked up my hearing by listening to Linking Park on maximum volume in the cheapest Chinese earbuds a third world teenager’s allowance could buy circa 2006.
… And getting stuff from YouTube takes 3% less effort.
WHAT?!
show me anywhere other than youtube that has the demon cleaner cover by tool
point is that it is good for the random one-offs but agreed on how much easier it is to get flac over mp3, seems like most stuff i cant even find mp3
Well technically from youtube at least they’re either oggs or m4as. However, yeah, flacs are better if you can get real ones.
Please don’t turn this community into a meme dumping ground. You can go to r/piracy for that.
There should probably be a piracymemes community to prevent this from the get go
It’s already bad enough this instance got spammed with a bunch of girl-dick images by some loser.
wat
Ah, and the redditors can’t cope with knowing their community has become just another meme community, and yet they feel like it is so important and the last good community for Reddit 😂
It is actually funny the delusionalism you get when you give a quick look there.
Please, I hate discussion coms turning into meme chambers
No one should go to that website ever. But it’s true, we should have a dedicated piracy memes community, or do we already have one? But until lemmy is this small it wouldn’t help if the communities were even more fine grained.
It’s worse here too because you can actually filter out the memes from r/piracy, Lemmy has no such feature since it still lacks a flair/tag system
I used to use YouTube rips, but I hated that the music video version isn’t the same as the album version and I kept getting songs that were a shitty bitrate because they’re not all available in at least 320 kbps.
I can hear all sorts of noise in a lot of my old files and it made my mix CDs noticeably sound like shit. I’m happy that you guys are happy using it, but for me it’s more of a last resort.
Just recently started using it again… but that’s mainly because I found “pinchflat” which gives a great front end for yt-dlp and a bunch of the options. Mainly thought it was a great project that I could use to start archiving channels that I want down the line like all of Demolition Ranch, but I came to realize it’s just a great front end for yt-dlp lol
I only use yt-dlp for the odd video I want in my Jellyfin server.
What I was surprised to learn: ItYitcan download from a multitude of other pages as well“Yit”? From a search of GitHub I’m not seeing a YouTube downloader that rivals yt-dlp… got a link?
Typo. I meant “it”
Pretty sure yit is just an autocorrect of yt-dlp
😂 kinda figured.
