Hello. 1st time caller, long time lurker. If I wanted to get a bunch of music videos for a theme party (in this case goth 80s) what would be the best source? Are there like mtv torrents by year or anything to make the collecting less tedious?

We thank you for your support.

Ok, I can work with harvesting YT but what do you use to do it? There are multiple websites that CLAIM to do this but they all are sketch.

yt-dlp is my go to. It's the open source project most other things use behind the scenes

ytDownloader, assuming it still works.

You have to find the links by hand, but wasn't really that bad for what I was doing, since I really only needed to snag about 50 videos or so to make the playlist rotation work out right.
