At this point YouTube's anti-piracy algos have rendered RiMusic useless for listening to playlists (every track stops at ~00:30) though I can still use it to link to YouTube play pages. Not great for general radio listening.

I switched from ViMusic to RiMusic due to lack of support, and while this particular problem (bug?) has been known for a while now, nothing has been done to stop it.

I was wondering if the recent crackdown by YT on FOSS offerings might spur a fix, but not yet.

Does anyone have news?

Can anyone recommend alternatives to those of us too poor to purchase subscriptions?

Thanks, all, in advance.
