I wonder if it could be done with torrents ... or user-supplied API key. Still some legal attack surface area, but perhaps no worse than yt-dlp.




If users type in their (premium) credentials it is legal.

But I still cannot just take someone else project and put my things on top if it ain't open source and it isn't and there seems no indication of wanting collaboration. So I could contact him if I ever made anything, but I cannot just make and release it.


Ah, I was imagining a Chrome extension would be the easy way
