I use innertune to play music on my phone, it's ok but I'd like to move that server-side, and have the app store the music files in case I play them more than once. Is there a way to use a Subsonic app like Gonic in that way? I noted Tapsonic a while back which sounded about right but it doesn't seem to be getting off the ground. I saw a plugin for LMS that looked almost right but it apparently requires a YouTube API key.

This reminds me of some peeps saying using Newpipe is "(app) piracy". I wholly disagree with them to this day.

If a website, which YouTube.com is and allows a client to connect and use its services it isn't, piracy per se.

Much like because I have a UK IP address I can hit up get_iplayer and use that service which IMO should be the norm.

e: apologies for not been helpful, I'm just ranting.

Yes youtube inner api is a public server, even with a domain name, and there's nothing blocking it, no authentication. Some people say it's against youtube api ToS but they shouldonly apply to their official api. Now in court you are never sure whay they'll do

Innertune won't work unless you sign in using Google account. Is that right ?

I've been using it without but it's been less and less reliable that way.

Would be weird if it was right. The youtube inner api doesn't need an account, it's the one that generates pages when you search on youtube or start video player

I checked. It's true .innertune wouldnt let me play anything without signing in So do I need to ditch innertune
