so youtube-dl (forgot the other better tool name) but with automatic tagging? Neat!
I think yt-dlp is the one you mean. It's truly better.
Yep, that one.
I used both this and yt-dlp for downloading albums. This seems smoother since it has a UI.
CLI>GUI
Nah, it's a matter of personnal preferences and use case.
I love CLI mainly because it allows me to sceipt suff, but lots of people don't mind actually seeing what they are doing and clicking on stuff to achieve it.
It's a good news there are piracy tools with a CLI, makes it more accessible to more people - and we should rejoice about it.
Executable with GUI and supplied CLI executable.
Best of both worlds.
For lots of archiving you want scripting. Same for whole albums of songs (i assume every song one item).
That is why cli>gui. In other use cases gui is better (complex video editing via ffmpeg alone would be interesting for example). And then there is jdownloader :(
Imo, the more complex and visual a task, the more likely it is for a gui to be preferable.
