I would like to ditch Google and move all of my media in Google Files to my own storage servers.

I have used Takeout to to generate a list of 78 .ZIP files each 4Gb in size, but I can't work out how to 1) translate this into a table of direct links and 2) how to download at commandline, considering there is no ability to load a website for Google account authentication.

Anyone got any cool solutions here? Or another way to get all the media? I tried rclone, but no matter what I did (including setting up OAuth test user), I couldn't get it to download a single thing.

Thanks for reading this far. :)

All the best,

Dax.
