Apple Music Playlist to YouTube Audio Downloader

Description

This Python tool allows you to extract song titles and artist names from public Apple Music playlists, search for the corresponding audio on YouTube, and download the audio files as MP3s using the yt-dlp library.

The script is designed to automate this process efficiently and includes a progress bar for clear visibility into the operations.
