Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi/issues/138

I am prefacing this with the note that I am using ytmusicapi through mopidy-ytmusic. However, I believe this is almost certainly an issue here. I am a Youtube Premium subscriber and have some albums that are available only to premium members.

Here is one such album: https://music.youtube.com/browse/MPREb_9dr3eORVCHz

When trying to play the album, despite me copying my request headers in and being logged in through the browser, the premium tracks on this album are not available to me. When playing them, I get the following error.

"ERROR: This video is only available to Music Premium members"

Is this a known issue or is there something off with how I am copying my headers in?

My bad, I realized this is actually an issue with youtubedl.
