PyStream is a tool for downloading and/or converting 1 or more youtube videos to audio formats. Its original purpose it to download music off of YouTube, however more features are being added as needed.
PyStream allows you to download multiple youtube videos using their url. It does this by reading them from a text file. PyStream is the ideal choice for automating the download of videos/audio from youtube since it does not require the user to input new links after each download is complete unlike the online youtube to mp3 converters. PyStream also comes with a built-in mp4 to mp3 converter tool. Even though PyStream was originally built for downloading music, the use of the converter tool is completely optional. Making it useful as just a video downloader.
