After executing the following command:

youtube-dl https://soundcloud.com/sushi_killer/sushi-killer-waifu-dream

I got this log in return:

[soundcloud] sushi_killer/sushi-killer-waifu-dream: Resolving id
[soundcloud] sushi_killer/sushi-killer-waifu-dream: Downloading info JSON
ERROR: Unable to download JSON metadata: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized (caused by HTTPError()); please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug . Make sure you are using the latest version; type  youtube-dl -U  to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.

Why was there a 401 Unauthorized error? Maybe SoundCloud "patched" the JSON request, or maybe it was a problem with my connection?
