Thanks. I use the Youtube API. I read Youtube's TOS, YouTube API's TOS : https://developers.google.com/youtube/terms and Branding Guidelines https://developers.google.com/youtube/branding . Please, tell me if you think I didn't comply with any of this .

I think hes talking about 4D in his link. You appear to have no way to monetize such a thing due to that clause. Its really beautiful though, good job!

Thanks ! :) Yes, of course, but ads are displayed by YouTube and iTunes links aren't affiliated.

This thread is a great counterexample to the argument that HN always disses Show HNs. Constructive criticism: Overall, great work! A "new" way to listen to music on Youtube is not nearly descriptive enough. I don't want a new way to listen to music on Youtube, I want a better way. And much more importantly, how is it better? A landing page would do wonders for you. But again, awesome work!

Thanks ! You are right for the description. I will see for the landing page.

Just a black screen with a black cloud for me.. Am I supposed to click something?

Sorry ! :( You are not supposed to click something. Can you tell me your OS / Browser version ?

Thanks for the report. I will inspect this.

Really great piece of work. UI is neatly polished. Youtube's recommendation list sucks. They only auto-play your lists not their recommendation lists. That sucks even more. It will be great if you can add channels like house music, electronic, trans etc then you can pose threat to Spotify :-) I had same idea as your's but for android. My friends disagreed with me saying it won't work but I will still do it :-) We can…

Thanks ! I will see for channel :). For, tech stack: DEBIAN, PHP, NGINX, MYSQL, REDIS, JQUERY, JQUERY-UI, BACKBONE.JS.

Thanks for sharing details. Did you use REDIS to store user playlists, search history and other user data?

Really nice work. I love that the HD button stays active and loads all videos in HD. I also like the arrows shortcuts for next and previous video. Makes it much easier to skip tracks. One minor recommendation: when the video is in full screen, the full screen arrows from the icon should be pointed inwards. Just being picky :) Great Youtube implementation. Congrats.

Thanks ! I keep your idea for the full screen icon. :)

For the moment, only country top are stored to REDIS for 24 hours. Search history and other user data are loaded once at startup and given by MySQL. The call to external APIs (to search, to retrieve playlist and so on) are made directy through your browser. (thanks to JSONP) :)
