Neat, now I can browse /r/listentothis and discover new music easily! Thanks for sharing this, I'll be using it today. :)

UX idea: I'd make the subreddit list alphanumerical. I had to look through it a few times to find the subreddit I wanted.

Another UX idea: If a video/soundcloud fails to load, is it possible to detect that the tab isn't playing audio (say after 10-15 seconds) and skip to the next item in the list?

Awesome, thanks for the feedback!

The subreddit list definitely needs some attention. The aim was to bucket them into categories, so I either need to flesh that out or sort them.

Skipping media that doesn't load is doable. Some content won't play or advance automatically because a lack of an api to control the api (gifs, Liveleak, Basecamp, iTunes, spotify) but I didn't automatically filter them out because a lot of it is good content. Probably a good option to add to a settings page.
