Same here and my motivation was that some of my liked videos were randomly removed and it's pretty cool music I wanted to keep forever.

I made another script that adds the video thumbnail as album art and somehow tries to put the proper ID3 tags, it works like 90% of the time which is good enough for me.

Then I made another script that syncs it to my phone when I connect it.

So now I have unlimited music in my phone and I only have to click on "Like" to add more.

And yet, none of Google's 900k TOC genius engineers have thought of this as a feature ...

I doubt that it’s a nobody else situation, and it’s more of a management doesn’t want it as it takes away the need for their own streaming offerings. Music industry also doesn’t want it, as there’s no more royalties coming in. Can’t release an app that pisses of the industry.

I have a script that calls out to a small llm

  artist = llm_call("return the name of the artist based on this title", title)

etc. with some stripping of newlines etc. It works well! they can often infer the correct answer even if it's not present in the title

    Hey ^^, that's a great idea.

    I wrote all of this stuff pre-LLMs, never occurred to me until now, thanks!
