Would this hypothetically be able to download arbitrary videos from youtube without the constant yt-dlp arms race?

Don’t know how this could be more stable than ytdlp. When issues come up they’re fixed really quickly.

> yt-dlp arms race

I don't know anything about yt-dlp.

It would probably help people who want to go to a concert and have a chance to beat the scalpers cornering the market on an event in 30 seconds hitting the marketplace services with 20,000 requests.

I can try to see if can bypass yt-dlp. But that is always a cat and mouse game.
