You can download audio from YouTube as 160kbps opus files, which aren’t lossless sure but it’s the highest quality you can get from YouTube if alternate means aren’t an option.

160kbps is garbage tier.

For mp3 sure, but for opus standards 160kbps is great. I read that 128kbps is generally considered the most you need but 160kbps smooths over any artifacts, assuming the source file doesn’t have them.

And that’s trusting that whoever uploaded the track had a good quality source. And it’s still double encoded.

Any official uploads from recent years are going to be just fine. And if not then maybe their spotify upload is broken too

Hq is equivalent to 320kbps, noticably better than YT quality

Well if you save the opus or aac it’s only single lossy compression, not double unless the uploader used a lossy file as their input. But if that was the case, ripping mp3 would be triple lossy compression…
