    I used to do that, but oftentimes what you find on YouTube is multi-generation lossy re-encodes which can sound poor with earphones.

    I still rip from YouTube if certain songs are not on Deezer or flacmusicfinder.com.
    Also, this is faster.

      I end up downloading these as webm, and exporting the audio to MP3 in Audacity. It’s a bit annoying for remixes that aren’t put on SoundCloud by the original uploader, and the audio quality difference can be noticeable sometimes ☹️
