I don't really have issue with downloading it. I have issue with the compression of YouTube.

Yeah ik, using this method can sometimes get you 192 kbps opus files, which sound and measure fairly decently.

It's mostly not the compression on youtube, but what happened before it.

Put a FLAC on youtube and it'll sound amazing as opus ~128kb (more or less what youtube uses) is pretty transparent to most. But download some music off youtube with a yt2mp3 converter, remix it into a new MP3, make it a video with AAC audio, upload it to youtube and now we're talking.
