In the event when there are no available sources due to DRM controlled sources, return a DRM error and don't proceed with trying. ytdl-org#28 reports that an ExtractorError "No video formats found". Which is true, because the formats list is empty, however it's empty because they are all locked. This provides a more informative message to the end-user. # TESTING Tried the URL provided in ytdl-org#28 and confirmed a DRM messages is returned.

Lets say I am downloading a set of files via --batch-file. and my Internet connection drops for a short time in the middle. The transfer seems to fail and leave a half-complete file, that you won't know about except by looking through the logs or by watching the video.
It seems like this could be easily accomplished by downloading using a temporary filename, and only renaming to the correct name after the download has succeeded.
