Ask HN: Who all use YouTube only for music not the Video?

I used to listen to last.fm "radio" which starting 2013 switched to just streaming one Youtube video after the next. Example http://www.last.fm/listen/artist/Deepcentral/similarartists

I've let it run in some browser tab in the background and there doesn't seem to be any time limit how long it can run. Bandwidth-wise it doesn't make sense at all. Owned by CBS Interactive so it's legit.

I'd personally use it... even playlists, but... is it legal? Did you read the ToS?

I could see it going either way.

Blind users can't see the video either way, so it could be positioned as an app to aid accessibility.

On the other hand, YouTube makes money from visual ads.

definitely, me looking at chromecast here.
