Well youtube-dl still works fine whenever I use it, so that should still
be fine. And it has arguments to only download the audio part if that
is all you want.

For example:

youtube-dl -f 140  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0jECuwrn_U

That downloads an m4a audio track only.  About 12MB in size.
