    Noooo! I was working on the exact same web app inspired by the same article seen here, you just beat me to the punch (Issue: I ended up overengineering the UI, trying to make a css-only simpsons-style TV around the iframe, the rest is basically the same as this app). Good Job :)

    As the great Nas has rapped:

        No idea's original, there's nothing new under the sun
    It's never what you do, but how it's done

    In case you need inspiration, I've had this site bookmarked for many years. I don't know anything about the Web design, but it has the appearance you describe. https://www.myretrotvs.com/

    Ecclesiastes 1:9

        What has been will be again,
    what has been done will be done again;
    there is nothing new under the sun.

    Pretty sure Nas was first though. I can't even find Ecclesiastes on Tidal.

    We should be collaborating, open sourcing the scraping code, and sharing the scraped datasets IMO.

    I was working on a similar idea a couple of years ago but got hung up on the scraping step after realising google api restrictions were too onerous.

    I was trying to come up with a way that would have the videos scraped by the user and then randomised, entirely client side.
