I'm excited for this simply because it means you can have a fully client side in browser youtube downloader. With things like youtube-dl, you need ffmpeg to combine the higher bitrate streams if you're downloading anything 1080p and above. Most downloaders offload to a server to handle this, but it always bugged me when I had to do that.
