Hey sorry for the delayed reply.
I could not reproduce the issue.
Could you provide some more information?

Check if you're actually using bash? Or check your bash version.
bash --version

Wasn't using jobs -p | wc -l plausible for compatibility?

This appears to be a Mac specific problem. Works as expected under Linux (even using zsh).

with mac you need to call with bash, since mac defaults to zsh.
$ bash Downloader.sh /path/to/playlist.csv
Alternatively chsh into bash
