Show HN: Pinterest + iTunes + Youtube Mashup

I'm glad web companies don't take patents seriously enough to file one for everything they do for one, and second they don't enforce them. If they did, there would be no more "Pinterest for this..or the Netflix for that" and so on.<p>I really do believe the web is better off without patents and letting companies copy each other, and I think the same would be true for software companies, too, and maybe many other industries as well. Copying leads to competition, leads to further improvements and new ideas through combing old ones. Besides, wholesale rip-offs will always be criticized by customers anyway if they go too far, who wants to take their business to a "clone" anyway, when they could go with the original.

I am not really clear on what this does, but if I have to guess, you can search songs and artists on pintunes - it picks thumbnails from Youtube and links to songs on itunes. Am I correct? The links don't seem to work - but that may be because I am on Ubuntu.<p>I would really suggest an <i>About</i> page or a README on the github repo and also a go-back-to-home link :)

How do you search the musics on youtube ?<p>For example, I did search for "samurai collection" on pintunes, and I could play the entire music "Duel - Kiyoshi Yoshida".<p>But I didn't find this music anywhere on youtube!! If I search for "Duel - Kiyoshi Yoshida" or "Duel - samurai collection" I don't get the music in question.<p>What is strategy do you use to find the music?

I like the idea of fetching a youtube video for the audio track. It's a pity that Youtube doesn't see it in the same way. Well done!

A beautiful site, this could actually be something amazing. It's missing a few key elements off the top of my head, of course (being a demo), but its crisp nonetheless.<p>Great job, and I hope it goes somewhere. I have a few ideas for it if you are interested!

Working good on my Chrome, OS X. And I think it's a great project, will check out the github. A suggestion would be to change the play-icon to pause and add some kind of progress bar to it when a song is playing?

My only big suggestion is to center the album covers and format the text below it a little better. Seems a bit lopsided to me. Seems like a cool project though.

This is great stuff, good job. The world needs more free tools like these. Would make for a killer product too...

Slightly OT: Is there any way to get the flv file from the video url on youtube??

i built something similar but more polished and released it on HN a few weeks ago. chartbrain: <a href="http://chartbrain.com/" rel="nofollow">http://chartbrain.com/</a>

looks like a clone of sworly.com: <a href="http://sworly.com/" rel="nofollow">http://sworly.com/</a>

does itunes have an affiliate program? if so you could get some money out of this.
