Private albums no longer downloadable? #181

Describe the bug Some albums show a full track listing for an album, but only particular songs have the 'play' button next to them, allowing you to listen to them. So, the songs that you cannot preview or listen to without purchase, are considered 'private'.

bandcamp-dl gives a Track list incomplete, some tracks may be private, download anyway? (yes/no): prompt, to which you can reply 'yes', but it will still only download those songs which were 'previewable' on the bandcamp site.

To Reproduce Command to reproduce the behavior: bandcamp-dl https://goosetheband.bandcamp.com/album/ted-tapes-2021

https://goosetheband.bandcamp.com/album/ted-tapes-2021

Expected behavior I would expect bandcamp-dl to still be able to download the entire album, but it seems the 'private' setting for songs may block this

"but it will still only download those songs which were 'previewable' on the bandcamp site."

Expected behavior, the prompt may just be misleading, it does not mean it will download the private tracks but that it will simply continue and download what tracks it can.

Bandcamp-DL gets the tracks from the preview player itself, so if a track isn't previewed...
