I used yt-dl for downloading, but since I have a decent flat, I switched to just using yt music with adblocker or revanced.
What benefits do torrents of music provide over just downloading from yt?
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
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
