+You should use `-N` (multi-threaded download) for timefree, otherwise it'll be extremely slow.
Tracklists can be embedded as chapters for timefree programmes. The accuracy of the timestamps varies - it depends on what the stations provide. The duration/end time of the song is not provided at all, so you may get very long chapters if there's a big gap between songs.

I've been advised that it would be risky to merge this extractor into yt-dlp proper as it uses a key reverse-engineered from the mobile app, so it's a plugin instead.
