This problem got solved when YouTube started allowing offline videos. Idk if it is available in your country, but in India you don't need to be a paying customer to save offline videos.

India usually get those offline features much more faster than other countries for some reason.

I wish we had these options in Canada, because mobile bandwidth is stupidly expensive over here.

This is because Internet in India sucks

On macOS, the following works as well:

    $ pip install youtube-dl
even if you don't use brew. Python is there out of the box.
