downloading music

I prefer (most of the time) commandline over GUI
So here is a automation script if needed:

yt2mp3.sh

Code:

#!/bin/bash
video=${1:-( read video )}
echo What is the artist of the song?
read artist
echo What is the name of the song?
read name
if [ -n "$video" ] && [ -n "$artist" ] && [ -n "$name" ]
then pushd ~/Music > /dev/null
youtube-dl $video -o "${artist}-${name}.flv"
ffmpeg -ab 192k -i "${artist}-${name}.flv" -acodec libmp3lame "${artist}-${name}.mp3"
rm -rf "${artist}-${name}.flv"
echo Your video is finally converted into a mp3!
popd > /dev/null
else
echo What is missing\? video\=$video artist\=$artist name\=$name
fi

usage ./yt2mp3 [url]

Hope this helps you out

Neat little script. Honestly I haven't done anything like this in a very long time, but I normally just hand edit and encode files.
