Description

Youtube-dl is throwing an error when trying to download tracks from soundcloud. The URLs are accessible in a browser. I've tried using --ignore-config to bypass .netrc credential lookup and inputting them manually. Tried using another account, too. Occurs on all soundcloud URLs I tried. Confirmed using latest release, to wit

C:\Users\dziba\Desktop\Tools\Youtube-DL>youtube-dl -U
youtube-dl is up-to-date (2019.12.25)

Also tried using linux client, which threw a different error, below:

Can you show me where the original issue is, because I'm not seeing it. Thanks
