Just to narrow down the issue here, can you let me know if you see any difference when using another web browser, or an incognito browsing window?
Also, please try clearing your browser cache and load the links again to see if you see the same error.
Let me know what you find and we'll go from there!

I have the same issue. I have been using raw=1 for years with mp3 and now it doesn't work in Chrome or Safari.
I contacted support but no answer yet. I tried cleaning my cache and same result. Here is an example that works for dl=0 but does not with raw=1.
