Can you provide an example link? I constantly download from youtube, so either it should always just work with yt-dlp or I've never encountered a DRM video.
A couple examples:
Free with ads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb3AUBtm_5o Must be bought: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2c26o4h0coY
I tried both with yt-dlp and I get errors with both
video unavailable in your country (would probably work with a vpn)
this video is not available (since it is paid)
