Youtube is like listening to music through an aquarium. The audio quality is terrible.

Sure, there are a lot of unknown/aspiring/indie artists on Youtube and nowhere else, some of them are even quite talented, but if I can find audio literally anywhere else, I will use that instead.

It depends completely on how good the uploaded tracks are. Youtube uses Opus at a rather high bitrate, so there shouldn't even be any audible issues from re-encoding.
