Lovin' it now 
Is a download button not possible? You're not hosting the files, so I'm assuming there wouldn't be any legal issues.

Oh there would be. You may not be hosting the files, but giving someone easy access to download it themselves is bad enough. I did that with an existing site of mine, and got legally raped (luckily they just made me remove that feature).

I dunno where you get the results, but it doesn't seem to be a 100% music directory.

I'd guess it's just calling the YouTube API for the requested search phrase (e.g. clangers  ) so you'll just be getting very similar results as if you searched on YouTube itself.
As for the site, the interface is poor but it does get the job done I suppose. I'm not really seeing much attracting me to this site as it is at the moment but there's some promise in the idea it definitely needs a few more features and a more comfortable UI to make me use this site over any other (and over YouTube itself).

Lighter? You're still loading the video file, just hiding it.

Several options on one page - Rather than going back to the search listings, then to another result.
Also it's not loading comments, etc, which comes on YouTube video pages.

What he said, except in a shorter, more pictographic form.

Those it's targeted towards are unlikely to use; or even know of; iGoogle.
Fair enough, Salathe makes some fair points. It's not something I invested much time or money into though - Just a small site to flip.
