# youtube-archive

This is a public archive of some youtube channels/videos I want to preserve and to be able to access even if the channels/videos go down.

Podcast channels are audio-only and compressed af to preserve storage space. Anyway OPUS is so good at compressing speech at 32kbps that you probably won't notice any sound quality issues. 

Other types of video are probably going to be 720p HEVC+AAC packed into MP4 containers as a compromise between compression, compatibility and hardware accelerated codecs available to me. 

Some stuff is going to be the top available quality to preserve every possible detail, like some music videos or movies. 

No guarantee that I'll keep all these files and keep them public.
