Suggestion: High-Quality Audio (WAV/FLAC)

Hiho =)

I'm a big fan of the YoutubeDownloader and use it regularly. Thank you for this great tool!

I've noticed that the option to download audio in WAV or FLAC is missing. For many audio enthusiasts, this would be a fantastic addition, as these formats offer higher audio quality than MP3 or OGG.

Would it be possible to implement this feature in future versions? I think it would make the YoutubeDownloader even more versatile.

Thank you for your time and effort!

The issue is that YouTube audio streams are encoded with a variety of codecs, all of which are lossy as far as I know. So converting them to WAV/FLAC won't make them higher quality.
