Is it possible to iterate over all YouTube songs >100k views? #43

I want to be able to blacklist all songs which have embed disabled... maybe I can buy some Amazon server space and iterate over to get this info? Songs are constantly being reintroduced, though, so maybe I need a more robust solution.

Realistically this isn't the right idea. I need to be able to react quickly when a song which is not able to be played is added and is attempted to be played. Maybe I have an always muted, secondary player which is responsible for playing a song to ensure it works before adding to the playlist?

I implemented a secondary player which can test songs for me! It works well. I need a database to store song IDs which don't work so I can filter out songs from the autocomplete.
