I'd pay if it converted YouTube videos into downloadable files for me.

  Hmmmmmmnnn that's super interesting. So unfortunately that flirts with a ToS violation-ish (of course youtube-dl is allowed to exist but maybe questionable to build on, public information is allowed scrapable via the linkedin decision, etc), but this implies that: - Youtube is a must-have platform for you (one of the big offenders for sure, I had them in my notes on this idea) - Being able to download the content is ideal. I've been thinking that maybe if the content creator has the option to manage their page and upload their own content that would be a nice way to handle it. Not that I want to play the video hosting game but having access to the original content would make it much easier to distribute. The question of who pays is interesting though. If you don't mind, email (see bio) me a way to contact you (something ephemeral if you'd like, twitter, whatever is most comfortable) and I'll see if I can whip something together for you to beta test.
