Question
what does that mean in readme? https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl#http-error-429-too-many-requests-or-402-payment-required
These two error codes indicate that the service is blocking your IP address because of overuse. Contact the service and ask them to unblock your IP address, or - if you have acquired a whitelisted IP address already - use the --proxy or --source-address options to select another IP address.
