Add Any YouTube Video You iLike to iTunes

“Like” is the word of the week. After the launch of visual shopping search engine Like.com, earlier this week, comes news from TechCrunch that social music site iLike has added the ability to download music videos from YouTube to iTunes.

Every song on iLike includes a link to play a short sample of the actual song. Now there is also a link to “play video.� Click the link and iLike searches for the video on YouTube, embeds it into the site and begins playing it. In our tests iLike found the correct music video about 2/3 of the time.

The entire rollout took just 72 hours from idea to launch!

You can learn more at the iLike blog.

    We have developed a similar widget : it’s a mashup between you tube and u-lik. It enables you to play music videos on your blog based on your preferences and get recommandations streamed to the widget. You can check out the API on my blog http://www.flyintiger.com
