Transition to YouTube Music api? #66

Just installed this and it works great! Just what I've been looking for.

Do you have any plans to switch across to using an api for YouTube music as Google Play Music shuts down? Please?!

Hi @aarmstrong78 . Glad you've found the app useful.

As for transitioning to Youtube music, it is certainly on my radar. There is already an effort to create a Python interface for Youtube music. I think it will end up being sufficiently different that a total rewrite of the app will be in order. In particular, I'd like to replace urwid with the Python Prompt Toolkit which should make windows support in tuijam simpler and seems to be a more modern and more actively developed library for terminal interfaces.

That all said, I'm not sure how much time I'll have to dedicate to working on the port. Hopefully, I'll have something in the next couple months, but no promises.
