2c0f1/youtube-dl-terminal-playlist-downloader ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a simple Python script that lets me download a YouTube playlist as mp3 files from the terminal.

I want it to be easy to run with Python 3, and it should use youtube dl to grab the videos and convert them to audio. Let me set the download location in the script or from a prompt, so I can point it to whatever folder I want.

When I run it, I’d like to paste in a playlist link and have it download everything cleanly with basic progress or status messages. If something is missing, like youtube dl or a bad link, show a helpful message instead of crashing. Keep it lightweight and straightforward, since this is just meant to be a quick terminal tool.
