## What it is
Termusic is a terminal-based (TUI) music and podcast player written in Rust with multiple playback backends (Rusty, MPV, GStreamer). It can download music from YouTube, NetEase, Migu, and KuGou, and embed lyrics and album art into audio files.

## Use cases
- play music from the terminal
- listen to podcasts in a tui
- download music from youtube for free
- embed lyrics and album art into mp3 or flac files
- edit audio tags from the command line
- play local flac and mp3 library in terminal

## When to choose
- you want a keyboard-driven terminal music player
- you want free music downloads from youtube or chinese services
- you prefer lightweight tui apps over gui players
- you need multi-backend audio support (mpv, gstreamer, rusty)

## When to avoid
- you want a graphical music player
- you need streaming from paid subscription services like spotify
- you need opus support without extra backend features
