    Guess we’re sharing scripts now. I have a script that downloads playlists as MP3s and keep an archive.

    #!/usr/bin/env sh
    
    browser_cookies="firefox:1cvnyph7.YouTube TV"
    
    download() {
    	url="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=%241"
    	dir=$2
    	archive_name=$3
    
    	yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 --embed-thumbnail --embed-metadata --cookies-from-browser "$browser_cookies" --download-archive "archives/$archive_name.txt" -P "$dir" -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" "$url"
    }
