I was sure that youtube-dl is youtube-only. Well, I attempted to compare. They are similar, but digging deeper difference is against you-get: | | commits | contributors | language | | |------------+---------+--------------+----------+---| | youtube-dl | ~7k | ~60 | python2 | | |------------+---------+--------------+----------+---| | you-get | ~700 | ~250 | python3 | | |------------+---------+--------------+----------+---| Well, there is sites, supported by you-get, not supported by youtube-dl, but I am personally not interested. I will close bug. -- Best regards, Dmitry Bogatov <KAction@gnu.org>, Free Software supporter, esperantisto and netiquette guardian. GPG: 54B7F00D
