I have no idea what you're on about. Literally every phone I have ever owned turns off mobile data when I'm connected to Wi-Fi, and turns it back on again when my Wi-Fi disconnects.

My phone is my wallet. It goes in my inside pocket where people aren't going to be able to pick it. I've played Skyrim. I know how pickpocketing works. /joke

There is a small, but growing, number of retailers that have decided to apply this worldwide. Perhaps GOG is the most noteworthy. Look at anything that's discounted there and you'll see their "usual" price, as well as the lowest price they sold it for in the last 30 days before the current discount started. It's a good rule, makes me more inclined to feel I'm actually getting a good deal, wish more places would do it

TIL only men are allowed to think Link is cute.

It varies based on the age of the video, newer ones do indeed have separate audio downloads. You can force audio only with

yt-dlp -f bestaudio

This will cause the script to only consider audio-only formats, if bandwidth is a concern. However, how it decides which one is "best" is beyond me. For example, I tried one video and got a webm that contains only an audio track:

~ $ yt-dlp -f bestaudio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

yt-dlp can just download the audio. It usually comes down in m4a at quality that I would describe as "very listenable". So only the first of those three steps are mandatory if you do it that way.

yt-dlp -x <url>

I am extremely disappointed by this.

I thought we were free of such toxicity here.

If you are treating your paying customers worse than someone you perceive as stealing from you, you are doing something seriously wrong.

Thanks for the lemonade, kind stranger!

But the only way it would actually get there depends on you, and your willingness to ignore data. :)

Same here. I occasionally try other clients, but qB is the one I always end up going back to, mostly because it automagically blocks hosts that send garbage.
