Take an m3u of mp3's and download the official YouTube videos

It's not getting fast, but it's getting there.
If this program is the one they're talking about, which I think it is, then no. Installing through python is an option, but you can also download the setup.exe from the releases page which will install just like any other exe. It's even available through the Windows Store if that's your thing.
