Download & convert youtube & soundcloud videos to audio in bulk via youtube-dl

Tiny Makefile wrapper around youtube-dl

• Docker

1. Download this repository

git clone https://github.com/kritzware/traktor-dl && cd traktor-dl/

2. Create a file anywhere on your machine with one youtube url (or playlist/id) per line, for example ~/tracks.txt:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFgXIXvsYLg

3. Run the Makefile to download and convert the videos to audio (.m4a). Make sure to replace {FILE} with the path to your tracks file:

make list={FILE} tracks

For example, if the file is called tracks.txt and inside this directory:

make list=$(pwd)/tracks tracks

4. Enjoy your music now sitting in the tracks/ folder!

SoundCloud

Repeat the steps above but use another file with SoundCloud links (don't mix this with YouTube links), and use tracks-sc instead:

make list={FILE} tracks-sc
