Add option for HTTP Headers #272

Open pacoccino opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Authorisation for Soudcloud does not work with just cookies.txt, but it does with an authorization header

Describe the solution you'd like In addition to setting a cookies file, I would like to be able to set abritrary HTTP headers, such as:

Key Value
Authorization OAuth 2-292xxxxx

Describe alternatives you've considered Downloading files with youtube-dl CLI on soudcloud works with the --add-header Authorization:"OAuth 2-292xxxxxx" argument

Additional context Soundcloud Go+ users get higher bitrate compared to free (unauthorized)
