   The video not playing properly is an issue with the Youtube Chromeless player I used. I probably messed up the javascript somehow. I'll have it fixed when I implement the new UI. The wrong video issue is simply the result of the first video

   Nowadays almost all the music videos on Youtube are legal. Most of them are from VEVO's official channel. So the risk of them getting taken off youtube is quite low.

   It takes your search term and queries the iTunes API. Using the search results, the Youtube API is queried for the search term "<song name> - <artist name>". The first video result is taken (it may or may not be the correct

   This was sort of a project for me to learn to code, so I borrowed a UI that was suitable. I didn't want to spend much time coming up with a new UI. I'll redesign the entire UI before launching the update version though. Apologies to anyone

   Thats really cool! Is the code available somewhere? I'd love to take a look at how the search and the playlist thing works.

   I am a designer, and have coded HTML/CSS before. I have been trying to learn coding for years, but never get beyond the intro chapters in most books. So this is my project. I just picked PHP (because it seemed to be simple enough - just dro

   I'm searching iTunes, and then searching youtube with the query "<song title> - <artists name>" and then playing the first result. Sometimes iTunes does not have a song, or the query doesn't return the correct video. I'm try

    The search results are sometimes quite weird. For example I can search for "The Who" now and get all the songs for the artists. I'll change the iTunes API I use now to Spotify's (or Last.FM's) soon. Sometimes if you click on a song before t

    Hiding the video and letting users download the music or the video is against Youtube's TOS.

    Has it really been two years? Tubalr was actually the inspiration for this. I really loved it, particularly the old UI (the new ones great too). Thanks for the link to the js to avoid blocked youtube vids. It'll definitely be a lot of help.

    I use Last.FM to find similar songs. It appears in the right sidebar when you play any song. I didn't use Last.FM for the main search, because I couldn't get the album name directly from the keyword search (the JSON has the title and artist

    Thanks a lot. I finally decided to try my hand at coding and this is the result of about 2 weeks of learning. I decided to skip the tutorials and books and jumped straight into coding. The code's mess but it works and that's great. I still

    Logo design can cost thousands if you hire a specialist. And they would spend a lot more than 4 hours on your logo (closer to 40-50 hours). I am a web designer primarily, but I could probably help you out. Email me at inlith@gmail.com My po

    I hope you're talking about the old design. The site shows the old version to some visitors. You can click the link in the footer to get the new redesign.
