I’ve been recently looking for psy and techno music, finding FLAC or WAV with active seeders feels like striking gold. It’s definitely been a while since I’ve looked for active torrent sites and it feels more barren than ever.
Edit: Thank you all for all that valuable information. The reddit group really wasn’t this helpful and valued making fun over adding real use able knowledge.
At some point I wrote a docker container (with some help from a friend) which regularly executes yt-dlp to download my youtube playlists to my media server.
I mostly do that because I have limited mobile data and want offline copies of music

I used yt-dl for downloading, but since I have a decent flat, I switched to just using yt music with adblocker or revanced.

Theoretically youtube doesn’t offer as high a quality as flac or wav files do.
Practically for most people it probably doesn’t matter
Pretty much it,streaming is so convenient too

Being able to download a full discography in one go, not just songs.
Youtube audio quality is noticeably shitty through decent speakers or headphones.
