• Audio Priority: Always try to get the best audio based on format and quality. With the default conf will try to get the best audio for m4a format, if does not exist will try to get the best for mp4 and so on.

• Override: If you want to download a sound and it already exists in the folder that you have specified to place it, the audio will be override or not according to the value of overrride-audios.

TODO

1. Show audio name or link in downloading process.
2. Maybe rethink using asyncio?
3. Maybe add a UI?
